Simpson and his Donkey - World War One - ANZAC - Gallipoli
Description
This resource is a six page PDF document about Simpson and his donkey.
The first and second pages are the story of Jack Simpson's life and experience at Gallipoli. There are also three activity pages included in this resource. One page is a Y-chart on Jack's experience at Gallipoli, another is a timeline activity about Jack's life and the last activity is a research task about a recipient of the Victoria Cross. The last page of this resource is the answer sheet for the timeline activity.
There is a book by Mark Greenwood and Frane Lessac titled Simpson and his Donkey. Although these worksheets are not written specifically for the book they would be excellent to use as a follow-on activity to learn a bit more about Simpson and his life.
This activity was written to use with the new Australian Curriculum History K-10 Syllabus.
Education Australia has other resources available for purchase.
