In this lesson students will learn about the five types of
nutrients and their purposes. This lesson will also cover symptoms
of nutritional deficiencies in livestock. I divide this lesson into
two class periods. On the first day we talk about nutrients and the
second day we talk about the importance of nutrients for body
functions such as growth, reproduction, and maintenance. At the
end, students will have to pass a quiz that covers most of the main
information taught during these lessons as a means to exhibit
proficient comprehension of the information and its importance.
