This half term our topic is called 'Claws, Fins and Other Things'. and is...you guessed it, all about animals, bugs and beasts! Please find the topic web below.

The books we will be focussing on as part of this topic are all based around the theme of animals. These are as follows:

The Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark by Jill Tomlinson

Non Fiction books about animals

The Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister
