Student Experience:

1. Create a law that would serve as protection and assist in the
reappearance of endangered animal species.
2. In pairs, students will create a list of vocabulary (with definitions) that
they think they will need to know and use in the creation of their law
governing animal species in Australia (Bjork, n.d.).
3. Write the text as if you are presenting the importance of such a law to the
Australian public on national television.
Include:
a. Name of the law
b. The purpose of the law
c. The regulations and specifics of the law
d. The positive result that is hoped to be apparent in 5 years.
4. Assign students to their previous partner. The students will read their
speech to their partner and afterwards provide each other with two warm
feedbacks (good) and one cool feedback (could improve for next time) on
the language and structure of the text.
5. To conclude, show the students the EPBC Act 1999 fact sheet released by
the Australian Government: Department of the environment (2013) and
discuss the concepts and reasoning that is presented and how this
compares to the students.
