Taj Mahal Dialogue
I have uploaded several short dialogues that I have made from stories in our reading books. This enables the students to have a speaking opportunity that is more colloquial and natural than reading from the text. This particular article was from the National Geographic Series.

From Head to Toe Crossword
The delightful chant video by Eric Carle is the basis for this crossword puzzle. The chant links animals with body movements that the children imitate.

Waltzing Matilda Explained
This famous ballad from Australia is its informal national anthem. Just to listen to it, one wouldn�t realize it is about a migrant who steals a sheep and is caught. Rather than be hanged, he drowns himself. The lyrics are from the Slim Dusty version that was sung by him at the Melbourne Olympics.
