Imagine you are in a competition to design an Aussie Chrissie stamp. Some things you will need to think about are: •
• •
AUSTRALIA r o e t s Bo r e p ok u S
ew i ev Pr
Teac he r
•
What kind of Aussie picture will you draw? – an Aussie Santa? – an Aussie scene? (beach, outback, barbie) – an Aussie animal with a Chrissie decoration? How much will your stamp cost? (Australia Post reduces the cost of Christmas stamps.) Where will you write the cost? Where will you write ‘Australia’ to show where it was made? What shape will your stamp be? (square? rectangular?)
Make sketches on a separate sheet of paper, then draw two designs below.
