Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Research and record factual information about Australia's geography, including its capital, bordering countries/territory, and climate.
Research and record key events and figures in Australia's history, such as the First Fleet's arrival and the 1967 referendum.
Identify Australian cities and capital-city attractions through independent research and write a short description of the country's culture and economy.
Teaching tips
Every prompt is open-ended with no provided source text, so plan for students to use a textbook, atlas, or approved website to research each answer.
The economy and culture prompts ask for a few sentences of writing, so this can double as a short written-response assessment rather than a single-word worksheet.
Pair with a map of Oceania so students can locate Australia's bordering countries/territories before answering that section.
Assign the two pages across separate sessions — page one covers geography, language, and history; page two covers economy, cities, and culture.
Skills covered
Geographic research — students locate factual information about Australia's location, borders, territory, and climate to complete short-answer prompts.
Historical inquiry — students research specific events (the First Fleet, federation, the 1967 referendum) and record findings in their own words.
Informational writing — the economy and culture prompts ask for a few sentences of written description rather than single-word answers.
List-based recall — students name five cities and seven capital-city attractions after researching.
Good to know
Questions teachers ask about this resource
