Key stage 2
Posters and tasks to promote discussion
The poster and tasks below are in pdf format. They can be downloaded and used after a class discussion on pet care. They are particularly good to use after a FREE talk from a Blue Cross speaker.
Also take a look at our Pets and People - Key Study Support for KS2 pupils and our wordsearches for additional lesson support.
