How Australia is failing its indigenous population. Every year on January 26, Australia Day, huge numbers of people gather to celebrate living in one of the world's safest and most affluent countries.
But on basic standards of living -- from health, to education, to employment -- Australia's Indigenous population is being left far behind. "As a wealthy country this continues to be our shame," said Romlie Mokak, chief executive of Australia's Lowitja Institute, which conducts research into the health and well-being of indigenous groups. In Australia, the Indigenous population is composed of mainland Aboriginal people and Torres Strait Islanders, who live in northern Queensland on the islands between Australia and Papua New Guinea. Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull has acknowledged that more work needs to be done to address the inequality between the general population and indigenous people. "We have not come far enough," he said when launching the most recent Closing the Gap report last year.
Färdigt tema för år 7 kring boken - Walkabout - Sara Bruun. Sjuornas första tema för året är kring Australien och boken Walkabout.
Boken är skriven av James Vance Marshall. Boken vi läser är mycket enkel och en Penguin Reader på level 2. Eleverna är inte vana vid att läsa skönlitteratur så jag hjälper dem väldigt mycket. Vi arbetar med förförståelse, tittar på bilder, diskuterar svåra ord utöver att jag högläser hela boken. Elever älskar högläsning särskilt om man läser med olika röster och lite drama.
Vår kommun har turen att ha avtal med Avmedia Skåne så att jag enkelt kan låna böcker där. Jag har mina elever två lektioner i veckan á 60 minuter. American History PP. Autos - How Tube stations got their unusual names. Scan a map of the London Underground for the first time, and you’ll likely notice that it is more than the ground-breaking design that seems imaginative.
The names of the stations, too, can seem curiously, even bizarrely, whimsical. Some seem suited better to a medieval fantasy (Knightsbridge, Queensway) or a children’s book (Piccadilly Circus, Elephant & Castle) – and others still make Londoners giggle (Shepherd’s Bush, Cockfosters). But these names weren’t chosen simply to give city-dwellers an alternate world to imagine as they hurtle beneath the capital. Some of their origins, in fact, date back millennia.
We’ve chosen 10 of our favourites to find out where their names really come from. Covent Garden: The name for this Tube station (as well as the shopping arcade, opera hall and West End neighbourhood) would be almost self-explanatory – if it weren’t for the ‘n’ that went walkabout at some point since the Middle Ages. There are two likely explanations. Stories – StoryCorps. Hidden America: Children of the Plains.
