Kensey Jones teaches a second grade class at St.
Michaels Episcopal School in Richmond. In her spare
time, she volunteers at Richmond Animal Care & Control
(RACC), and she recently found a way to help the animals
find their way home just a little bit faster.
Kensey spoke with Christie Peters, director of RACC,
who also happens to be the mother of one of her students.
They cooked up an idea to introduce the class to a rescue
dog named Snow, then give them the task of writing
persuasive stories and making drawings from the dogs
perspectives(角度). These works would then be placed on
the shelter animals cage.
“Im a very cute dog, ” one child wrote for a dog
called Famous Amos. “ Dont you love my name? Do you
love me? I hope you do because then you can adopt me!”
Each of the drawings is 100 percent unique as well as
being incredibly cute. Christie knew the project would be a
hit as soon as she heard Kenseys idea. “ The class was
working on persuasive writing, and they wrote pieces as if
they were speaking on behalf of the shelter dog trying to get
adopted, ” she said. “I said, ‘Lets do it. ’”
“ Im so proud to see my students write amazing
persuasive paragraphs through the eyes of one of their RACC
dogs, ” Kensey explained.
After meeting Snow, the kids were allowed to choose
an adoptable dog from the list of those available at RACC.
The kids were then told of the dogs unique personalities,
likes, and dislikes. In the end, the students wrote about 24
stories!
So far, eight animals have gone home after their new
owners read their letters! Kensey and Christie both hope
other schools will find a similar way to partner with their
own local shelters to help homeless pets, too.
