  • As a homework assignment, have learners research one or two additional facts about Australia that they find interesting and would like to add to the list. Then ask class members to share their findings the following day 
  • Ask learners to label major Australian cities, geographic features, and landmarks on the outline

Pros

  • Straightforward printable with multiple possibilities for classroom use
