JOEY Preparation • Collect pictures of young kangaroos. Presentation • Share and discuss the pictures with the class. Have the class members discuss their experiences with kangaroos. • Read the following to the students: When a baby kangaroo is born it is very tiny. It must climb up its mother’s furry tummy and crawl into her pouch. It is safe and warm in there. It has a drink of its mother’s milk and falls asleep. A joey will live in its mother’s pouch for a long time—about 240 days! After 18 weeks its eyes open and it climbs out of the pouch—but it soon hops back in! Additional activities/information • Say the following rhyme to the class. Have the students listen for the long vowel sound ‘oo’, then say the rhyme again. The students can hop to the beat of the rhyme and twitch their noses when they hear the ‘oo’ sound. Hop, hop, kangaroo All the way to Paraburdoo. Hop, hop, kangaroo Say ‘G’day’ to a jackaroo. Hop, hop, kangaroo Catch a wave at Ningaloo. Hop, hop, kangaroo Hop on a ferry to Sydney Zoo. • Discuss Australian coins. Current Australian coins and notes are produced by the Australian government in the Royal Mint. In 1965 a new mint was established in Canberra especially to produce decimal currency. When a joey is eight months old, its mother decides it is old enough to leave the pouch and learn the ways of the bush, although it still stays close to its mother as she teaches it which grasses and herbs and shrubs to eat and where there is danger. • Say the rhyme with the actions for the class. • The class claps the beat while saying the rhyme. • The class says the rhyme with the actions. • View one-dollar coins. The design of the five kangaroos was created by Stuart Devlin. • The red kangaroo is the Northern Territory’s faunal emblem. • Ask the students where they may have seen a flying kangaroo.
