Kindergarten students in Mrs. Mason's class at Bethel Manor Elementary School were able to Skype with a military veterinarian stationed in Germany. Major Barry shared pictures of some of the dogs from her deployment in Afghanistan, where her primary job was to care for military dogs. She was able to share what veterinarians do with the dogs and answer questions the students had about her job and the animals. Students are all working on Transformative Learning where each class is researching a community helper. Together the kindergarten classes will create a neighborhood with a veterinary clinic, a restaurant, grocery store, farm, and a bakery for other students in the school to visit.
