This Animal Services Unit gives students a hands-on introduction to horse care, wildlife rescue awareness, and pet-service business planning. Students research real-life animal services, investigate animal needs and safety systems, create horse care guides, design wildlife awareness resources, and build a realistic pet business brand pack with pricing, forms, policies, and promotional materials. With connections to NGSS, Common Core literacy, STEM, social studies, career readiness, financial literacy, digital design, and portfolio evidence, this unit helps students learn through research, planning, observation, design, and practical problem-solving. It is designed for US homeschool families who want an open-and-go elective that feels meaningful, career-connected, and strongly linked to real animal care and service industries.
