Min 200 - max 300 words.

Imagine that YOU ARE STILL STAYING in Australia. Try to include into your story all kinds of facts about the sights, nature/geography and cultural aspects etc. of Australia that you have learned when watching the video on Australia and reading the texts in class.

Step 1: First using Word:

a) Write a "greetings-mail" from Australia to your friend in England. While writing, Google for some pictures that would go well with the things that you are writing about (as if they were "photos" taken by you) and SAVE the pictures into your iPad camera. DO NOT include the pictures into your Word document!

b) Submit the Word file in the folder below so that the teacher can print it out and mark it.

Pay special attention to the correct usage of verb tenses!

eg.

You can tell, for example:

- where you have already been and what you have done so far (present perfect = perfekti)
- where you went /what you did or saw or experienced on a specific day (yesterday, two days ago etc.) (past tense = imperfekti)
- what your plans are for the following days/what you are going to do (future: will/won't - be going to...)
- describe the weather /your surroundings / environment /landscape (present tense = preesens)
- where you have stayed (accommodation)
- what you have eaten
- who you have met
- if there have been any adventures /mishaps during your trip

Schedule:
Getting started:
Thursday 16th March

Continuing at school: Tuesday 21st March + Thursday 23rd March = Story in Word format submitted by Thursday evening, 23rd March.

Step 2: Using AdobeSpark-app

Transform + transport the text into a text + pictures + oral commentary format ( = video presentation) using the AdobeSpark app:
= copy the texts from your Word file into different slides in AdobeSparks-app adding the chosen pictures to go with the texts

Step 3:
Finally, RECORD the texts = read them out loud! Pay special attention to good pronunciation, articulation and read slowly and loudly enough = Make it pleasant for the viewer to listen to!
