LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Zoom to Pontiac (Illinois) Township High School

3/18/2021

Thursday, March 18, was an exciting day for LCC K-9 Comfort Dog teams as they visited with the Life Skills students at Pontiac Township High School. The Life Skills students have been learning about each of the K-9 Comfort Dogs from their Facebook pages and researching the states where they live. The students were excited to meet thirteen of the LCC K-9 Comfort Dogs and their teams during their Zoom visit. The class will meet fifteen more of the K-9 Comfort Dogs on April 8. The K-9 Ministry teams enjoyed “seeing” the students and answering all of their questions.

Picture
Following the first virtual visit, LCC received a wonderful email from Laura Baumgardner, Life Skills Special Education Teacher:

“I just wanted to let you know how much fun we had yesterday on the Zoom calls! We have been working on how to ask questions and how to do research. Our students are all working on job interview skills and how to look up information about the jobs they are applying for, so this was a great way to practice those skills! This year since we have been more self-contained due to Covid, our students asked me to teach a weekly art lesson. We drew Golden Retrievers! They named them and shared them on the calls yesterday.”

“The students and the teachers were very well organized! The students had questions prepared to learn more about the dogs which really helped them to get to know the dogs better. Definitely a very enjoyable visit!” LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Ezra and team at Trinity, Toledo, Ohio

“We had a positive experience and enjoyed Ms. Baumgardner's class. The pictures they drew of Golden Retrievers were creative and they asked good questions.” LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Kezia and team at Emmanuel, Baltimore, Maryland

“We had a wonderful visit. The kids drew pictures of dogs and named each one (my favorite was ‘Goldie’) and they asked great questions about the training, diet, and playtime of the comfort dogs.”  LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Kye and team at Immanuel, Belvidere, Illinois
Picture
"The questions made me smile! The kids were really interested in what sports teams we support. It was lovely to see the joy and excitement they have for all the comfort dog teams participating in the Run for Respect. Our team looks forward to being part of it!” LCC K-9 Comfort Dog Tobias and team at Lord of Glory, Grayslake, Illinois
The LCC K-9 Ministry supports students and teachers and looks forward to scheduling more virtual visits.
