TASK:
Make a 'Hypertstudio' presentation recreating the story of the birth of Jesus. Imagine his parents had to travel to the outback and that was where he was born. If you live in South Australia this could be the mining town of Coober Pedy.

Decide how they might travel to the town. Find accommodation there. Use the Internet to get pictures and information about Jackaroos and Jillaroos and discuss how they are like the shepherds who visited baby Jesus. The wisemen gave Jesus three precious gifts. Opals are precious stones found in Coober Pedy today. Identify and describe three different kinds.
