Medium Term Plans for Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2
This booklet contains several vegan-inclusive topic plans for primary school aged learners. They are animal centered, yet vegan-friendly, as they are based on observing non-human animals in their natural habitats. These vegan-inclusive topic plans show how other animals can still feature in your curriculum as a muse to teach key skills but are written in a way that is respectful to other animals and their habitats.
