Let’s Meet the Animals Workshop

Given that the materials are aimed at two different age groups and two years that are quite different cognitively and that students even change a lot between the beginning and end of the year, all information and study suggestions we offer are logically designed to use them as considered most suitable. The activities can all be done or streamlined as you like, adapting them to the students' age and knowledge.
