Contents of each lesson include the objective, study questions, reference list, teaching procedures (with a content outline and answers to evaluation), and the evaluation instrument. Some lessons also contain transparency masters, handouts, and/or worksheets. Lesson topics are: the sheep industry; sheep selection; managing the breeding flock; managing the flock from lambing to weaning; managing a flock from weaning to market; and diseases, parasites, and predators.
