LESSON 2
Literacy. Critical and creative thinking. Personal and social capability. Ethical understanding. Intercultural understanding. Geography. History. English. Represent the location of places and their features by constructing large-scale maps that conform to cartographic conventions including scale, legend, title and north point, and describe their location using simple grid references, compass direction and distance (ACHGS022). celebrations and commemorations in other places around the world; for example, Bastille day in France, Independence day in the USA, including those that are observed in Australia such as Chinese new year, Christmas day, Diwali, Easter, Hanukkah, the moon festival and Ramadan (ACHHK064). Plan and deliver short presentations, providing some key details in logical sequence (ACELY1677). By the end of the lesson, students will be able to: Locate significant areas of Australia on a large map, and distinguish where North, South, East and West are. Identify what day Australia day is celebrated, and understand why Australia day is important. Identify which day of the year Chinese new year is celebrated. Successfully work in groups with peers and create short presentations together. INTRODUCTION (10 MINS): Introduce celebrations; talk about special events celebrated around the world. Introduce Chinese new year and talk of its significance and meaning; include that it is an example of the many commemorations celebrated around the world. Play Chinese new year YouTube video on projector. Introduce Australia day celebration. Ask students what they do on this public holiday. Talk about family traditions. BODY (20 MINS): Play video that explains the importance of Australia day and why it is celebrated. Ask questions when the video has ended. Hold up large map of Australia and ask if anyone knows all the states and to name them. Hold up compass and explain where north, south, east, and west is. Hand out map to each student and explain that they are to draw a cross on the paper and name each line north, south, east, and west. Instruct them to colour each state a different colour and write the name of the state in each. CONCLUSION (30 MINS): Split class up into 4 groups, instruct them to brainstorm about activities and traditions that they have done to celebrate Australia day. Give each group a city to locate on the map and create a short presentation explaining what can be done in that city to celebrate Australia day. Internet may be used for research and to print off pictures for presentation. FORMATIVE: Observe how everyone is working in groups. Ask questions throughout the lesson to ensure students know what they are doing. SUMMATIVE: Examine each individual in their cooperation in groups, and their input into their group presentations. Data projector. Large maps of Australia. Compass. Ruler. Pencil. Large A3 papers. Video about Australia day. Video about Chinese new year. Colouring pencils.

Lesson 3
Geography. Mathematics. The representation of Australia as states and territories, and Australias major natural and human features (ACHGK014). The similarities and differences in individuals and groups feelings and perceptions about places, and how they influence the views about the protection of these places (ACHGK018). Create and interpret simple grid maps to show position and pathways (ACMMG065). By the end of the lesson, students will be able to: Locate and name every state and territory on a grid map, and name every capital city. Locate their town of accommodation (remote area in Northern Australia) on a grid map and draw a hybrid view of what the town looks like (naming streets and local attractions). Discuss conflicting issue that is affecting town and understand different points of views. INTRODUCTION (15 MINS): Hand out A4 grid maps to each student. Ask questions: what is a state? What is a territory? Explain the difference. Ask students to draw a small cross on the top corner and locate where north, south, east and west is. Display on projector where all the states and territories are. BODY (45 MINS): Instruct students to go to a computer and research where the capital cities of each state and territory are, and draw them on the map. Once finished this task inform students to return to their desk and instruct them to locate their town of residence, and on a separate piece of paper draw a hybrid view of what the town looks like (be specific). Start class discussion on the floor about the issue of the new resort that has been proposed for the town. Read the story that was in the local newspaper about this issue. Ask students questions and get their personal opinions. Send students back to their desks and instruct them to create their own newspaper story about their personal opinions on the issue. FORMATIVE: Walk around and observe student participation. Ask questions. Check their grid maps. SUMMATIVE: Assess their newspaper stories. Local newspaper story. A4 grid maps of Australia. Pencils.
