Problem: How might we raise money and donations to the Harrisonville Animal Shelter How might we bring awareness to adoption, fostering, and the importance of spaying and neutering your pets?

Students met with Harrisonville Animal Shelter to discuss the need for donations and funding to help support homeless animals. Harrisonville Animal Shelter also expressed the need for the community (and our world) to be reminded of the importance of spaying and neutering, and how rewarding it can be to adopt or foster homeless pets.

The main thing is, if you are teaching multiple grades and subjects, and don’t feel that your class has the maturity to handle something, don’t be afraid to change it up and let the class that can handle it do it. Always reward incentives helped. We set goals as a class and when we met that goal they were rewarded with a party.
