Equine Institute will provide an opportunity for children grades 1-5
to learn about horses in an interactive and unique environment, right
at your school or a one of our participating barns. Through the tools
such as:
English
Social Science
Math
Science
Participants will gain a greater understanding of horse (equine)
science and culture. Students will also have the added benefit of
working in teams. This enables students to engage in activities that
build life skills such as:
Cooperation
Conflict resolution
Problem solving
Respect
Programs may be held at a participating stables or at the school of
the class participating. The programs are developed in a progressive
attitude. So if a student participates in the program in 1st grade if
he/she participates in the program in second grade they will be
building on knowledge acquired earlier. But each grade is complete
and so new students can still participate even if they have not been
able to do so at an earlier grade. Students will learn in small group
format while rotating through different subject stations or modules.
Pre and Post units are available for teachers
Price is $15/child
4 adults will be needed to help during program. There will be one
required orientation with participating adults and teacher before event.
