Presentation of Australia

Hi guys,

today we worked on speaking about a presentation dealing with Australia.

You had to illustrate 5 slides from a slideshow about the country.

1- Australia is situated in the Southern hemisphere.
2- It’s the 6th largest country in the world but there are only 20 million inhabitants.
3- Canberra is the capital city but it’s not the largest city. Sydney is the most populated city in Australia. The biggest cities are in the south.
4- The Aborigines are the first inhabitants in Australia.
5- They painted the oldest paintings on walls and they play the didgeridoo: the most ancient musical instrument on earth.

The story of real trees !

Monday, May 3rd

The Simpsons (correction)

(feuille à coller)

Drawbacks and Advantages of trees

For Ted’s mother, real trees are messy and dirty.

They have a lot of leaves. They can change colours only in Autumn.

Electronic trees have a remote: they can play music, they have a disco mode and they can change colours.

They are very clean and tidy.

Ted’s objective

Ted wants to see real trees and he wants to talk to the Once-Ler about the story.

The price of the story: fifteen cents, a nail, and the shell of a snail.
