\nService Dog Etiquette & Education<\/span><\/h1>\n
Overview<\/h2>\n
Justice Speaks has carefully crafted and patented a Pre-K through 12th Grade curriculum with easy to follow directions for presenters, educators and students. This curriculum, titled \u201cYour Guide for Forming and Informing Citizen Advocates for Service Animals,\u201d is designed to create and inform the students who will be our future citizen advocates. The lesson plans outline the role of the teacher and provides engaging activities that build on and reinforce what came before. Our goal is to expose children to alternate lifestyles and special needs to help them respond with compassion and understanding when they encounter service dogs in the real world.<\/p>\n
Our content is aligned with Colorado Academic Standards for Reading, Writing and Communicating. The curriculum addresses all types of disabilities, both seen and unseen.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nAbout the Training Course<\/b><\/p>\n
The total curriculum is organized into four groups: Pre-K & K, 1 – 4, 5 – 8, and high school. This approach allows for<\/span> a truly comprehensive functional curriculum for students with and without developmental disabilities.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
Our curriculum is broken into three modules. Each takes around 60 minutes to complete. Each module design includes skill cluster sequences and activities related to daily living situations.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>We recommend spreading the activities out over 2-3 weeks depending on your class’s schedule and needs. We recommend you review each module before you start training and let us know if you have any questions!<\/p>\n
Each module includes pre- and post-assessments.<\/span><\/p>\n

- \n
- Games<\/li>\n

\nWeb Game<\/h2>\n

\nCertificates<\/h2>\n
Younger students receive a certificate when they finish the Justice Speaks training. Certificates get kids excited to master a topic and can be a talking point for the child to tell their families what they’ve learned and further spread understanding of service dogs.<\/span><\/p>\n
