The Australian Outback

Tomorrow we are studying the Australian Outback!

Our first animal is the kangaroo!

We are going to look at this website and watch the short movie.

We might even look through a couple Zoobook magazines we have on the kangaroo.

Then we are going to make our own kangaroos as a craft like shown on this blog.

We are then going to look at the Honeypot ants.
