Teaching ideas with the koala replica
- Have students research koalas and present their findings.
– Why do they eat mainly gum leaves?
– What allows them to eat these poisonous leaves in the first place?
– What are koala’s sleeping patterns?
– Where in Australia are Koala’s found?
– What diseases are affecting koala populations? - Create a student poster, diorama or similar project on koalas.
- Create an Australian logo of a product using the koala image
- You could run lessons on what a marsupial is and where they are found in the world.
