Lesson 5 Uluru Lesson 6 Aborigines Lesson 7 Australia Day (updated for 2023) Lesson 8 Australia Cultural class This is the second part of my Australia scheme of work, but naturally you could use any of these lessons separately. There are two booklets. In the easier one there are two different exercises (just made a bit easier for weaker students). I have added the video clips to a Youtube list but some can’t be added The Uluru video on the PowerPoint is from the BBC and for some reason videos designed for children on Youtube cannot be saved to a playlist. But they are embedded in the PowerPoint lessons. Regarding the biographies: Hugh Jackman, Margot Robbie and Chris Hemsworth I get the students to, in groups of 3 or 4 take the text and try to summarise it then they read in front of the students who take notes (a kind of dictogloss) to see what they understand. After all this then students can read the biographies together in class. The biographies for Jackman, Robbie and Hemsworth have been taken from different sources edited, rewritten and like all my other lessons I’ve added pics and formatted it myself.
