    Story Time

    8 July 2020 (by Roy Peach (RoyP))

    Back to Australia today

    If you enjoyed Possum Magic yesterday, you're going to love today's story which keeps us in Australia.

    What can you find out about today's animal? It's not a possum this time. Also, did you know that our animal friend can only be found in Australia? I wonder if you can find anything out about another animal that can only be found in one country. Harder than it seems but a great challenge for you or even just find out about an animal that isn't native to our country.

    You might like to see if you can draw today's character. There's a lot of rhyming words in today's story. Can you make a list of words that rhyme with different animals? Maybe you could have a go at seeing how many words you can make from the word AUSTRALIA? As a final thought, did you notice that all of the animal's names start with the same letter as what they are 'like Stella the Starfish'. Can you write a list of names for every letter of the alphabet and then try and put an animal after them that starts with the same letter?

    Our story will be here in a few minutes.
