play with for a short while.

* While the dogs are there, I will ask the students if they know what dogs need to
survive and how to take care of a dog.
* Ask the children to compare the 2 dogs and see what is different and what is the
same about them.
F. Closure
* I will have the students draw a dog and label it's body parts.

* If I have a student who is allergic to dogs, I will not have a dog come into the
classroom. I will come up with another plan if this does occur.
