This
workshop is designed to help teachers feel more comfortable
with animal visitors in their classrooms. Choosing appropriate
animals and how to care for them will be emphasized. We
will discuss common wild and domesticated animals, from
slugs and snakes to frogs and ferrets. Included will be
demonstrations, handouts, guest speakers, and of course,
guest critters. For more information, contact the K.U. Museum
of Natural History, Office of Public Education, (913) 864-4173.
