This printable Level Up flashcard set can be used for Purple Level unmounted lessons that teach students to recognize common plants, shrubs, and trees that are toxic to horses.
The set actually contains three related sets of flashcards, with separate cards for terms, images and definitions. All of the terminology is taken directly from the information in our study guides – in this case, the Purple Level HorseSense Study Guide.
Definition cards include a brief overview of symptoms and possible treatment for affected horses — but students should consult additional resources for in-depth information. See helpful links below.
Flashcards are formatted for full-color, single-page printing on card stock. And yes, we think it’s definitely worth the cost of colored ink to help students identify poisonous plants in our pastures!
