vocabulary. Maths - Time and direction. Discuss the
different animals that live in the UK. Statistics of
animals living in area - local study. Look at the types
of painting produced by Lowry and the different
backgrounds in the artwork. Link to Gingerbread
Man/Cinderella story - travelling to different places.

countries within the UK or animals. Children to select
and retrieve their own pictures.
