AUSTRALIAN ANIMALS



Can you name a famous animal from Australia which carries its babies in a pouch and can jump high? If you said Kangaroo you are right! There are several exotic animals from Australia. On lesson B2 we are learning a little about them. We have gathered some more information as well as pictures and videos which could give you a better idea of how they live and what they do.

Read about one animal and take notes of some information about them to be presented in class. You should not worry about writing a report becuase you will only have to make an oral presentation.
