ReplyDeleteI agree with you James V. Adriana's setting out is fantastic. It makes her facts really easy to read! Well done Adriana.
ReplyDeleteLivi. I think you are on the right track about why Australia is a warm country. It has something to do with where Australia is on Earth. My clue is that the coldest places are the North and South Poles. They are cold because they are at the very top and very bottom of the earth. So why is Australia warm? Hmmmm.....does anyone know?
ReplyDeleteHi Mrs Owen Australia gets the most sun because it normally faces Australia.
