Australian Special Days – Celebrated through language activities – Ages 5–7

Description

Australian Special Days is a set of blackline masters designed to provide activities and puzzles for the special days of the year which we celebrate as national holidays, multicultural events, anniversaries of Australian historic events, special awareness days or festivals.

Each worksheet should take approximately 20 to 30 minutes for the children to complete and may be used as a motivational activity for further research or discussion. As an alternative to the classroom activity, worksheets may be used as homework assignments.
