Today we had a visitor from Tasmania, Australia. Miss Wyatt has been traveling across the United States and Canada since September with her stuffed buddy Davo the Tasmanian devil.
She shared lots of interesting facts with us about Australia, the Tasmanian devil and other Australian animals.
"In Australia there is a kangaroo called the red kangaroo," added Sally.
"The red kangaroo uses it's back legs to attack, " babbled Mason.
"Tasmanian devils run when they get their food, so that the other Tasmanian devils won't get it," roared Christian.
"Tasmania is an island near Australia," grinned Colin.
"There's a lot of Australian snakes that are poisonous," exclaimed Noah.

Wow! I bet having Miss Wyatt in the class was a interesting experience! Did everyone see the article in The Acorn? I guess you guys are famous now!

Miss Wyatt came to visit our class, too, and we had so much fun learning about her travels. We also enjoyed learning about Tasmanian devils. Did you learn about the dingos, too? Many students in my class hadn't heard of them before, so it was great, new information.

G'day Mrs Levy and students,
ReplyDeleteDavo and I have had a great time touring North America and visiting lots of classes. We were very pleased to visit your class and answer all those questions. Remember to add any more questions to the link in Davo's blog.
Thanks for the comments. We loved having Miss Wyatt visit and tell us about Tasmania.
ReplyDelete@Ms Madden- we were fascinated by the dingos and also by the kangaroos. It's amazing to think that a baby kangaroo is only as big as a jelly bean :-)
@Miss W. I hope your plane flight back goes well. It must be nice to be going home after traveling for so long.
Mrs. Levy
