Community Helper Description – Vet
This community helper works in an office with animals all day, looks them over really well, takes their temperature, and gives medicine to make them better … who is he? A vet!
Have you ever met a community helper who wasn’t needed to help your neighborhood, school, or city run smoothly? We all have a job to do and every job serves a purpose. Community helpers come in all shapes and sizes and they’re all around us.
Why not invite a local fireman, librarian, or doctor to come to your classroom and share with your kids what their job is like, who they help, and how they serve their community? You will find that some of your student’s parents would love to come and share about their jobs, if you just asked! Have them bring their gear, too. Maybe a doctor could listen to a heartbeat, a fireman put his helmet on a student’s head, or a mechanic show the kids how to use some tools. The kids love seeing (though maybe not handling) all the cool stuff grown ups work with every day.
