Pets make us happy, and pets in the classroom mean a happier learning community. Research shows that human-animal interactions create calmer, better-focused, more social students. In fact, the presence of a pet — even in the form of a video, book, photo, or toy — leads to laughter, conversation, and excitement. Pets bring us together, and Mutt-i-grees — or shelter pets — contribute something unique to the equation. As living, loving lessons in resilience and hope, they are models of transformation. This project will bring the Mutt-I-Grees program to our school. Students will use the curriculum for social-emotional learning and humane education to become empathetic, resilient, self-aware learners. The program focuses on the themes of Achieving Awareness, Finding Feelings, Encouraging Empathy, Cultivating Cooperation, and Dealing with Decisions. Students will increase their ability to express feelings, communicate, and manage emotions.
