I have always been passionate about horses since I was a child and I have always loved science. This website portrays my love of both. Although this website started off as a university project, I intend to manage and update this page as I gather more information about science and horses. Since it is a subject I am passionate about, I feel that horse themed lessons are a great way to introduce new topics in science. It is also a prefect example of how you can find science everywhere in everyday life. If students can see that I can relate I subject I like to science, then they could also do the same with their passions and interests.
The picture above is from 2006 when I still had my small herd of horses. Rayne, the chestnut flaxen in the middle, was a spunky little mare who I owned since she was a foal. She was a master at unlocking her stall and opening the grain bin.....she also ran through fences. Trooper, the chestnut on the far right, is a gelding I rescued. He turned out to be a great little horse and loves cuddles. The horse on the left is Spring, my sister's mare. She was a good horse but prefered my sister over anyone. These three horses have given me ample opportunities to study science in the equine world especially when it came to doctoring injuries or plan feeding programs.
