Designed to compliment the Year 3 Australian HASS curriculum your students will have the opportunity to explore where Australia is in the world, identify the different States and Territories of Australia and identify various landmarks and their locations throughout Australia. Students will also be able to sort these landmarks between natural and manmade and then explore the significance of each one in order to prepare a persuasive argument to present to the government highlighting which landmark is more important to preserve.

Take a look at some of the great feedback for this resource:
“We used this as a beginning unit to learning about Australia (our home country) and I felt that it was very thorough and accurate. I especially loved the little project element where the students needed to choose a landmark to save and justify their choice, it really got them thinking!”
