Our first topic for the Autumn term is Zootopia”. This topic is geography based and we will be using globes, Altas’ and maps to find out more about our world. We will be looking at latitude and longitude, the different hemispheres and the countries and continents that lie between them and the equator. We will look at the different animals that live in different parts of the world and the reasons for this.
In Art we will be exploring the question: What is Typography?
