WHAT IS HAPPENING AND WHY

... and more importantly what I want YOU to prepare for next week ;)


As you know I can't be in IJO tomorrow, which means I will not see Reds and Camels. Sorry gals :(

Please watch the video below, and pay attention to what people say about staying and defending their house, or leaving the property early.



The most important part begins around the 2 minute mark.

Then study the materials here:

1. Stay and Defend
2. Go Early
3. Do I Stay or Go?

Once you've done that, choose ONE topic, and prepare an informative POSTER (A4 or A3 format).

Include the most important information, preferably using visuals rather than text.

You can follow this link to create some warning signs online (and print them out later) --> Warning Sign Generator.

Have fun with it! :)


And here is the link to the presentation on FEDERATION. Let me know in the comments section if you have any problems accessing it.



NOW ATTENTION EVERYBODY!

For the classes next week I want each team to choose one of the topics below, and prepare a short presentation (up to 8 minutes). Please let me know which topic you're choosing in the comments.


GOLD RUSH - bagged by the Lazy Snakes (Thursday)

THE GREAT BARRIER REEF - goes to the mighty Camels (Friday) and Koalas (Thursday)

GENERAL GEOGRAPHY - Aborigines are taking this one (Thursday)

THE GREAT DIVIDING RANGE - taken by Reds (Friday) and Kangaroos (by default - Thursday)
