Idea Approval

1. I really dont have a certain idea on what I can do for my independent task because I cant perform an exam on a animal or open my own business up so would doing service learning to learn how it runs and what you have to do count for my task? and what have people who have done this topic in the past done for this?

2. It could be valuable hours because it gives me more time at the clinic for more learning and lots of hours and experience in a clinic looks good on you applications for vet school

3. It will teach me everything that i need to figure out all of the work needed and that is put in to keep a clinic open

5 min rough draft
Objective:
The objective in my 5 minute will be to teach the class the difference between the types of veterinarians for example a small animal (household pets), large animal (farm animals), zoo (exotic), government, laboratory etc.

Procedure:
1.      I will introduce myself and my topic and ask the class what they know about veterinary medicine.
2.      After a few of them answer I will explain what veterinary is and how it is a very broad and general term.
3.      Using my visual I will explain the differences of them all and the type of working conditions that they will work in
4.      After I explain all of the differences of the veterinarians I will ask people to raise their hands and ask them to explain the difference between two of the many type of vets.
5.      Conclusion and thank the class for their participation

Checking for Understanding:
To check for understanding I will do an activity with the class where I will ask them questions based on my presentation to get some audience interaction. To encourage participation from the class I will have a reward for the students that raise their hands and get the correct answer.

Topic Choice

What is your topic?
My topic is canine verterinary

Why did you choose this topic?
I choose this topic because all of my life i have always had a pet and have always cared for them so ive always had the idea of being a veterinarian in my head as a job i would one day like to have in the future. I choose canine veterinary in specific because dogs are my favorite animals and love them a lot, so to be able to study them and help them when they are sick sounds like the perfect profession for me(:

What do you hope to accomplish after studying this topic all year?
i hope to gain further knowledge of the study of dogs and for me to get a good idea of what is need for me to get into veterinary school
