HISTORY

You can choose between watching a video about the history of Australia or doing the activity, or you can do both. It's up to you ! Get ready for your second mission.

Aboriginal people arrived in Australia about 68,000 years ago. Dutch explorers first landed in Australia in 1606. In 1788, the British began to settle in Australia. Many settlers were criminals sent to live in Australia as punishment. In 1851, gold was discovered in Australia. A rush to find riches brought thousands of new immigrants. In 1901, six separate colonies joined to form a British commonwealth. Sydney Harbor Bridge was opened in 1932. In 1966, the Australian dollar was introduced replacing the Australian pound. The Sydney Opera House was opened in 1973. The Sydney Olympic Games were held in 2000.

GEOGRAPHY

Watch a video and get ready for your third mission !

Video script (below the video) : Australia / Destination World - Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=3&v=f0PvMmTAUAQ&feature=emb_logo This is Earth. Maybe you’ve heard of it. I sure hope so because you live on one of its seven continents. This one is most known for its desert landscapes and unique animals: AUSTRALIA Australia is the smallest of the seven continents, and it’s entirely surrounded by water. It’s also the only country in the world that covers an entire continent. At almost 3 million square miles, Australia is located below Asia in the Southern Hemisphere. That’s how it got its nickname, the “land down under”. Life down under is very unusual. It can go from scorching dry temperatures to very subtropical. In the Southern hemisphere, stars and constellations appear upside down and reversed compared to the Northern Hemisphere. This is because the Earth turns on its axis from the North to the South Pole. Even the seasons are in reverse. So get out your winter parkas in the summer and surfboards during the holidays. And you’ll definitely need sunscreen if you visit one of Australia’s many deserts. More than 33% of Australia is desert, like the Great Victoria Desert, the largest desert in the continent. Australia’s warm sunny climate and giant open spaces make for great outdoor adventures. Ready to camp out underneath the stars in the Australian Outback? On clear nights, you can see almost 3,000 stars. Wanna take a dip in the ocean? The Great Barrier Reef There are over 1,500 species of fish that live in the Great Barrier Rief located in the Pacific Ocean, the largest coral reef in the world. Another natural wonder in the heart of the continent Uluru, a sacred rock formation that stands 1,100 feet tall. And of course, there are some incredible animals in Australia, like kangaroos and emus that live on the coast, and the cute marsupials like koalas and wombats. And unique animals like the platypus and camels. Australia has almost 1,000 different reptile species, including some of the most dangerous snakes. Australia is home to 21 of the 25 most venomous snakes in the world. Even though many of the world’s deadliest species live here, Australia is home to over 24 million people. The continent’s first people, the Aborigines, arrived in Australia about 50,000 years ago. Australia is one of the most ethnically and geographically diverse nations in the world. What an incredible place. A beautiful island. I mean country. Wait. Continent. Well, you know what I mean. All of the above. Australia.

Watch carefully this video for about 3 minutes... then get ready for your fourth mission !
