EDUCATION RESOURCES

FOR TEACHERS

We are pleased to offer teachers and educators our Humane Education Program for Pre-K through grade 12. The fun isn’t just for youth! We also offer a program for adults.

As experts have recognized the link between child abuse, animal abuse and violence against people, the value of humane education in schools is greater than ever. Our education programs include presentations and adoption centre tours that inform while inspiring respect, empathy, and compassion for all living beings. We also collaborate with teachers to tailor presentations, enhance class projects and modules, and provide resources to teachers who would like to integrate humane education lessons into their classrooms.

For more information, please check out our Presentations tab.

To book a tour/presentation please contact our Education Coordinator at fspca.education@gmail.com

FOR PARENTS

ARE YOU READY FOR ME?

“Can we get a dog? PLEEEEASE!” Is this one of the most common questions heard in your house these days?

Is your family thinking about adding a canine companion to your home?

For families with young children the story book “Are You Ready For Me?” and it’s accompanying worksheets is an excellent resource. This book is designed to help families decide if they are ready for a dog and provides support for either answer. We can provide you with printed copies of the worksheets. Here is the link to a video version of the book: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAsW_mHo6Rw.
