    This lesson plan aims to teach students livestock terminology. Students are each given a term related to cattle, sheep, swine, horses or chickens and work to fill in a terminology chart. The teacher then leads a review with the class, having students come up and tape their terms in the correct spots on a large version of the chart on the board. The filled-in chart shows terminology for the species, including terms for giving birth, newborns, young and mature males/females, and castrated males. Examples given include that for cattle the term for giving birth is "calving" and the newborn is called a "calf".

    Animal Science Lesson Plan

    Colorado Agriscience Curriculum


    Section

    Animal Science

    Unit

    Unit 1: Introduction to Animal Science

    Lesson Title

    Lesson 5: Livestock Breed Classification and Terminology

    Science Standards
    Standard SCI3.1: Students know and understand the characteristics of living things, the
    diversity of life, and how living things interact with each other and within the environment
    Student Learning Objectives
    As a result of this lesson, the student will:
    1. Know and understand terms used to describe mature and immature males and females,
    and the effect giving birth and castration have on what we call cattle, sheep, swine,
    poultry and horses.
    2. Briefly review major breeds in cattle, sheep and swine.
    Time: Instruction time for this lesson: 50 minutes.
    Resources
    http://www.ca.uky.edu/agripedia/classes/ASC106/INDEX.asp
    Scientific Farm Animal Production, Robert E. Taylor, 4th edition
    Tools, Equipment, and Supplies
    PowerPoint Presentations on terms and breeds
    Livestock Terms papers (cut up)
    Worksheets

    Interest Approach
    This activity is modified from the Go Get It e-moment. Before class begins, print off the
    page of terms at the end of the lesson and cut them apart. Tape one on the bottom of each
    chair, scatter them around the room, or if time is short, just hand them out. Also, draw a
    large version of the empty terminology chart on the board.
    Welcome, under your seat, youll find a piece of paper containing a term. Get that piece
    of paper now and get ready with a pen or pencil and your terminology worksheet.
    Here in a minute, we will need to see how much you know about livestock terminology.

    Many of you may find this to be review or common sense and thats great! You will serve
    as our experts today. For a minute, ignore the term you found under your seat and focus
    on your worksheet. You have one minute to fill in as much of the table as you can. Dont
    worry if you have to guess. Well check the answers. Go.
    After one minute, ask students to put their pencils down and to raise their hands if they
    believe they have 100% correct; decrease the amount think they are correct in increments
    of 10% until all students have raised their hands. Explain that no matter where they
    raised their hand, today is about giving them all 100%.

    Summary of Content and Teaching Strategies


    Objective 1

    Know and understand terms used to describe mature and immature males
    and females, and the effect giving birth and castration have on what we call
    cattle, sheep, swine, poultry and horses.

    Each of you has one term that belongs on the chart I have put on the board. So we are
    going to go through them, one species at a time, and make sure we all know the correct
    terms to use as we study animal science. Lets start with cattle. If you have a term that
    applies to cattle, bring it up and tape it in the correct spot. (After they are put on board,
    check with master copy to see that they are correct. Continue this process until the chart
    is complete. Remind students to fill in their own charts or correct them as they go.)
