Description
This 10-lesson program investigates three Australian animals – kangaroo, koala and platypus. The lessons vary in length and sometimes may need more than one session. Whiteboard presentations introduce each animal with a story, addressing physical features, survival needs and habitat. A written copy of the three stories is included for teachers not having access to an electronic whiteboard or similar system. Lesson planning notes provide a suggested sequence of presentation and include a wide range of student activities. All worksheets and answers are included.
The word bank provides subject-specific words and their definitions to print and place on a word wall and/or use with vocabulary games - the cards have been organised into two levels of difficulty, and coloured appropriately (a black and white version is included). There is a choice of two different fonts – Vic Mod Cursive and KG Neatly Printed. Vocabulary game suggestions and instructions are included.
