Animals
Take a trip with the Planet team as we explore the diverse range of animals on our Earth!
This theme has been put together to cover both science and citizenship lessons, with resources gathered from other teachers and a new resource pack for endangered and extinct animals.
If you're interested in minimising your lesson preparation time even further for your animal lessons, make sure you investigate the range of premium content from Dorling Kindersley that covers Mammals, Dinosaurs, Jungle and Oceans.
Finally, read all about our science project with The Nature Conservancy on the Solomon Islands exploring marine biology and conservation.
