Teacher notes
This education kit provides teachers and students of Italian with the opportunity to
engage in the Italian language with the Wild: Amazing Animals in a Changing World
exhibition at Melbourne Museum.
The Wild: Amazing Animals in a Changing World exhibition is an exciting teaching
resource featuring a wonderful diversity of mammals, birds and reptiles from around
the world. Students can discover which animals are thriving and which are merely
surviving.
Part of the exhibition is dedicated to Victorian environments. Here students can
observe different Victorian habitats like the Alps, grasslands and wetlands. Students
can discover why biodiversity is under threat and obtain clues about how we can
create a more hopeful future.
Students can view hundreds of animals from around the world through an immersive
experience. Multimedia exhibits allow students to explore the successes and failures
of these species in their changing environments.
The exhibition, together with this education kit, il mondo degli animali, will enhance
student learning in LOTE-Italian and Science and support other domains of the
Victorian Essential Learning Standards (VELS), particularly Geography, Maths, ICT
and Thinking Processes.
Please note:
• Wild: Amazing Animals in a Changing World is a long term exhibition at
Melbourne Museum.
The museum is open from 10am to 5pm each day.
•
Bookings are essential for all school groups.
Bookings: 1300 130 152

Learning in museums
Making the most of a museum visit
Research suggests that school students learn more in a museum when:
• Pre-visit preparation takes place, for example pre-visit lessons, and
orientations and assessment of students’ prior knowledge.
• Planning and preparation of concepts to be investigated with students takes
place.
• Curiosity is encouraged and some student choice and control over their
learning experiences is taken into account. The experience should be learnercentred.
• Teachers are familiar with the museum site.
• Co-operative small groups are used.
• The social aspects of learning are taken into account. Teachers should
encourage students to talk and share ideas about what they are
seeing/hearing/touching; they should be asking lots of questions.
• The visit to the museum is integrated into a broader body of student learning
at the school level and is strongly linked to the curriculum. Follow-up and
reflective sessions are essential.
• Both physical and mental rests are available during the visit.
• Students share their findings in some sort of report or presentation.
What to bring on the excursion
Any materials you would like students to complete while at the Museum should be
copied prior to your visit. Museum activities in Italian (Le attività al museo) from this
education kit, il mondo degli animali, can be downloaded from the LOTE page at:
http://museumvictoria.com.au/MelbourneMuseum/Education/
A wide variety of educational materials for teachers and students is also available in
English from the website: http://museumvictoria.com.au/wild
It may be appropriate for students to bring clipboards, pens/pencils, etc. They may
also bring cameras for use in certain areas.
Student bags should be left on the bus, where possible. Alternatively, bags will need
to be left with the Schools Entrance in purpose-built trolleys. These can be accessed
throughout the visit if necessary.
To reduce congestion in the Museum Café we recommend students bring their own
food and drink. Consumption of food and drink is not permitted outside the
designated café areas. School groups generally have lunch out on the plaza in front
of the museum.

Il mondo degli animali
Le attività a scuola – Pre-visit activities
Teachers are encouraged to carefully plan their visit to Melbourne Museum and to
ensure that students are given adequate linguistic preparation to understand the
activities they will be expected to complete in the Wild exhibition. Pre-visit activities to
provide students with background knowledge about animals of the world are also
useful preparation. Le attività a scuola have been prepared to stimulate students’
curiosity about their visit to the museum and to assist them to interpret and
understand what they will experience.
Teachers should look at all activities and decide which would suit their students’
abilities. As a guide, Principianti (Beginners level) are for the beginning of Level 4
VELS LOTE, whilst Intermedio (Intermediate level) are for the end of Level 4 VELS
LOTE and the beginning of Level 5 VELS LOTE.
Principianti
Suggested pre-visit activities:
•
Le attività a scuola 1-5. Teachers should include a couple of these activities,
e.g. Rompicapo e Un collage
•
Compare and contrast the size, shape and physical features of animals.
See Vocabulary- Principianti for essential vocabulary.
•
List relevant verbs relating to animal movements, for example camminare,
correre, volare, strisciare, saltare and adjectives veloce, lento.
See Vocabulary- Principianti for essential vocabulary.
•
Students explore the Wild website and familiarise themselves with the exhibition
at: http://museumvictoria.com.au/wild
There are some matching games in the section ‘Wild Fun’.
Intermedio
Suggested pre-visit activities:
•
Le attività a scuola 1-5. Teachers should include a couple of these activities,
e.g. Rompicapo e Un collage
•
Explore on the map of the world where particular animals live. The website
http://museumvictoria.com.au/wild will assist with this information.
•
Discuss animals’ diets and habitats and classify various animals as carnivori,
erbivori and onnivori.
•
Research the animals that are now extinct or endangered and explore the
reasons why this has occurred.
•
Students explore the Wild website and familiarise themselves with the animals in
the exhibition at: http://museumvictoria.com.au/wild
http://museumvictoria.com.au/MelbourneMuseum/Education/

Il mondo degli animali
Le attività a scuola – Post-visit activities
After visiting the Wild exhibition, students should do several post-visit activities.
Teachers should consider the suggestions and ideas given in le attività a scuola,
Principianti and Intermedio (above) that were not done before the visit.
Students should also be encouraged to report on their experience at the museum to
the class through multimedia. Depending on the ICT available to them, they should
consider using the images from the Wild website: http://museumvictoria.com.au/wild
Students could use PowerPoint or Movie Maker to produce a digital story of their
experience at the museum.
Le attività al museo- During the visit
Le attività al museo have been designed for individual or pair work.
Le schede 1-5 should be used as a way of orientating students around the exhibition.
Students should not be expected to complete all of the worksheets, rather the
teacher should give different activities to pairs of students and then students can
share their findings with their classmates back at school. Students should be
encouraged to complete one or two activities well and then be given time to explore
the interactive activities within the exhibition. They could also prepare a report about
what they learnt in the exhibition.
To assist teachers to select worksheets appropriate to their students’ age and
linguistic skills, each worksheet is indicated as suitable for Principianti (Beginners
level) or Intermedio (Intermediate level). As a guide Principianti (Beginners level) is
for the beginning of Level 4 VELS LOTE, while Intermedio (Intermediate level) is for
the end of Level 4 VELS LOTE and the beginning of Level 5 VELS LOTE.

Il mondo degli animali
Le attività a scuola
Attività 1: Rompicapo
Objective and VELS links
The objective of this activity is to assess students’ prior knowledge of the topic of
animals in Italian, and to begin compiling essential vocabulary around the theme of
gli animali nel mondo. This activity links to the Thinking Processes domain of VELS.
What you need
 Textas
 Post-it notes
 whiteboard
What to do
1. Brainstorm with the students what they already know about animals of the world.
You can do this in a class discussion, with you writing their comments on pieces
of paper and sticking them to a board. If the students are able to write their own
sentences, have the students write what they know on Post-it notes. This
discussion could happen in Italian using images for stimulus. As students begin
to write, they can use a dictionary or word list to translate the words into Italian.
2. The teacher can then arrange the words into sub headings such as:
Dove vivono nel mondo, l’aspetto fisico, come si muove, nomi degli animali in
italiano ecc. The vocabulary lists on pages 19 and 20 of this kit can be a good
starting point.
3. The Post-it notes form part of a ‘graffiti wall’. During the unit, students add extra
pieces of information about animals in Italian.
4. The students think of questions, or things they would like to know about certain
animals of the world. These questions are added to the graffiti wall. When the
questions are answered during the unit, they are replaced with the information
that the students have discovered.

Il mondo degli animali
Attività 2: Un collage degli animali usando ICT
Objective and VELS links
To create a poster on an African animal, using information provided by the teacher.
VELS Thinking Processes using Bloom Taxonomy - Remembering and De Bono
Hats: White hat, facts - Information Gap Activity
VELS Humanities (geography), Science, Design, creativity and technology
This activity can be used with all the levels, provided that the pieces of information
are targeted to the audience.
What to do
Nella classe ci sono 5 contenitori. In ogni contenitore c’e’ un insieme di cose.
Questo insieme di cose includono: figure di animali, cassette con suoni di animali,
testi con informazioni su animali, riproduzioni di impronte di animali, carte
geografiche di habitat.
Sono provvisti: carta per i poster, registratori, colla, forbici, ecc
L’attività consiste nel fare un po’ di ordine in questo chaos e nell’organizzare un
poster su un determinato animale, che poi verra’ presentato alla classe in italiano.
Questa attività puo’ essere adattata a qualsiasi livello sempre che si adattino i testi e
le informazioni al livello targato.

Attività 3: Le poesie degli animali
Objective and VELS links
In this activity students are encouraged to share their knowledge and thoughts about
animals by completing various poems in Italian. This activity can be adapted for both
beginners and intermediate level. It links to VELS LOTE and Literacy.
What to do
Depending on the level of language, students can be encouraged to write poetry
using different structures. Here are some examples:
La poesia piramide
e’ fatta di una frase in forma di un piramide cominciando con un silibe e aggiungendo
piu’ silibi.
Un
Gatto
Piccolo
Ha mangiato
Un topo rosso
(1 syllable)
(2 syllables)
(3 syllables)
(4 syllables)
(5 syllables)
(Poem by R.Zarro)
Haiku poems
A haiku is a traditional Japanese poem about nature. It has a very special pattern
made up of seventeen syllables: line 1-five syllables, line 2-seven syllables and line
3-five syllables.
Examples in English can be found at http://www.dampier.wa.edu.au/haiku06.htm
An example in Italian:
Nel bush lontano
i canguri saltano,
velocissimi.
(Line 1-five syllables)
(Line 2-seven syllables)
(Line 3-five syllables)
(Poem by R.Zarro)
Scioglilingua
There are many tongue twisters in Italian that relate to the theme of animals that
students can practise eg: Tre tigri contro tre tigri.
Students should also be encouraged to write their own. Here is an example:
Un serpente seccante saccheggia una salumeria.
(Poem by R.Zarro)
http://museumvictoria.com.au/MelbourneMuseum/Education/

Il mondo degli animali
Attività 4: La musica e gli animali
Objective and VELS links
The following is an example of how to present a song in the LOTE classroom.
Adjustments can be made according to the year level and language competency.
Links to VELS LOTE: Communicating in a LOTE, and The Arts: Creating and
making.
What to do
Choose a song that has the theme of animals as the main focus. For this example
the song chosen is Gli animali della foresta e della giungla, from CDROM Cantiamo
in italiano, dei Cantori Italiani © 2009
The words have been reproduced with permission of the author, V. Golding.
Non ho paura del leone
No, no, no, no
Non ho paura della tigre,
No, no, no, no
Non temo l’elefante, non temo il coccodrillo ma……
Ma …..se vedo un topolino,
Cosi’ piccolo e carino,
Che gioca a nascondino,
Pulendosi il musino,
Mi viene mal di testa,
Mi viene mal di pancia,
Io corro come un matto,
Finche’ non viene il gatto……
Non ho paura del serpente.
No, no, no, no
Non ho paura del giaguaro,
No, no, no, no
Non temo l’orso bruno, non temo l’orso bianco ma……
Ma …..se vedo un topolino……………
Students then use the structure ‘Non ho paura…….’ to make up their own song using
animals from different parts of the word. They could use Australian animals and add
the name of the animal, reptile or insect that they may not like instead of ‘il topolino’.
They could use the same tune or change the tune to a form they like, such as a rap.
