How Animals Can Help With Learning, Collaboration & Creativity in Children.
-
I know a few children who have had estranged parents, messy relationships and a lack of good parental figures in their lives. It has absolutely made a difference in the way they see the world.
-
I think that animals are a very effective teaching tool. Most children get excited about animals, and when they help take care of them they gain confidence and develop a sense of responsibility. Additionally, it is calming to spend time with pets.
-
Elizabeth, I agree! Animals are a great teaching tool for building confidence, responsibility, and a sense of calm.

Animal can definitely be an effective teaching tool in the classroom! Animals can teach children responsibility, kindness, and trust! I use to have a hamster in my class and the children loved it everyday the first thing they did was go say hi as soon as they entered the class, which also helped make drop off easier especially for children that had some separation anxiety
-
Great insight, Britnie! Animals can teach children valuable lessons in responsibility, kindness, and trust. Introducing animals can also help with separation anxiety.
-
-
Animals can help students engage in activities because animals to children are usually fun topics that keep them engaged in lessons. If the lessons are boring to the children, they are less likely to listen and pay attention than to lessons that actually interest the children.
-
Kylie, you’re right! Animals can make learning fun and engaging. Teachers should ensure proper care and safety protocols when introducing animals.

We this year caught a preying mantis we got it his own cage and the kids just loved bringing in bugs for him to eat. They learned alot about preying mantis bugs, and how their bodies worked, how they ate, used there hands and jaws. it was a very interactive addition to our class
-
Great initiative! Using animals as teaching tools can be effective for hands-on learning. Ensure safety guidelines are followed.

animals are effective because they engage children and teach responsibility and dedication and patience.
-
I think Animals effectively especially to the young children because the animals helps lift the mood from the children with the help of playing. Animals are really friendly and make people happy even in their worst day.

“Liboke, I agree that animals can positively impact children’s mood and bring joy. Teachers should prioritize safety and hygiene.”

Having a Pet in the classroom teaches children responsibility, compassion, teamwork, math, science, etc.
I have seen children experimenting firsthand feeding caterpillars, watching them grow, and turning into butterflies. Children learned math skills counting the amount of food they fed the caterpillars as well as counting the days it took them to grow to be butterflies. They learned compassion while they satisfied the needs of the animals (such as grooming, handling the animals with care) and they also learned the importance of these creatures in our environment .
-
animals can be an effective teaching tool for children. In my opinion, I believe it teaches children a sense of responsibility to take care of the classroom pet, it teaches them compassion, social skills, and science. The way I would introduce it into the classroom would be by creating a theme and as a classroom creating safety rules for our pets.
-
Animals can be effective teaching tools in many ways. They offer valuable lessons in empathy, responsibility, and the interconnectedness of life. Additionally, observing animal behavior can teach us about adaptation, communication, and cooperation. However, the effectiveness of using animals for teaching depends on the context, the age of the learners, and the specific objectives of the lesson.
-
Yes I think animals would be a very great teaching tool. Teaching responsibility respect empathy compassion communication and so much more. I believe even just having an animals will start a lifetime of interest and respect for animals and bring so much joy to the kids.
-
Yes, I agree animals’ effective tool to have in classroom depending on the age of the children. Having this tool teaches children many things such as responsibilities, self-esteem, and social skills, and build their confidence.
-
Reina, I agree! Animals can teach responsibility, self-esteem, and social skills. Teachers should consider safety and proper care.
-
-
I believe that Animals is a good thing to have in your classroom. It helps teach your class about responsibility an caring for something. It can also be educational as for you can do a project about the animal as well.
-
Great insight, Nya! Animals can teach responsibility and offer educational opportunities through projects.
-
-
Animals in a classroom is a good idea because it teaches the class about responsibility an teaching them how to take care of something alive. It could also be educational an you could do projects about the animal to learn more about it .
-
Yes! Animals can be an effective tool. Children who are interested in animals learn to identify body parts, build their memory recall, and can help language development as well.
