= Geography projects about AUSTRALIA﻿ = Australia is the smallest continent in the world. Its capital city is Canberra, but the largest city is Sydney. Our projects are about nature, animals, the Great Coral Barrier and Aborigines. This project is about nature. Australian nature is extremely diverse and interesting, with a number of unique animals living in Australia. Here we explained chemical communication among insects. We made crosswords and puzzles there. Animals living only in Australia are kangaroos, Tasmanian devils, platypuses and koalas. There are two species of Grey Kangaroo, the Western and the Eastern. The Western Grey Kangaroo is darker than the Eastern, and can grow to about 2 metres high. Tasmanian Devils come out at night to hunt for food. Tasmanian Devils eat small birds, mammals, and insects. Platypuses spend most of their time in the water. They eat small crustaceans, tadpoles and worms. This project is about the Great Coral Barrier. It’s the world's largest reef system. This reef structure is built by billions of tiny organisms, known as coral polyps. We wrote about coral’s structure of the body and where they live. There are pictures of the animals and corals. And this project is about Aborigines. They are natives living in Australia. Aborigines came to Australia 40 000 years ago. Nowadays there live 230 000 of them.
