Free Manual for Teachers: Teach Compassion, Accept Differences, Make a Difference. Two-Week Curriculum Uses Disabled Animals as a Learning Tool.

Amherst, NH, October 17, 2008 --(PR.com)-- “The children learn a lesson that is invaluable,” says Barton, “that what they do in response to suffering matters. That everyone – even a young child – can make a difference. They learn the value of a life and that another’s injury or ill fortune can be an opportunity to lend a hand. If they can do that for a dog or cat, think of what it can mean for the world!”

The manual includes a program description, objectives, skills the students will gain, materials needed, a list of daily activity suggestions, plans for organizing a fundraiser to help a handicapped animal, and information on how to arrange for a disabled pet to visit a classroom or group.
