He lives in West Bengal, which you can see on the map above (if you click on the map you can see a bigger version).

Australia map

May 23, 2009 · 4 Comments

In one of my classes we studied some things about Australia and I made a photocopy of a map of Australia for each student. The original map was in colour, but of course the photocopy was black and white, or rather grey and grey, and was not so easy to see.

So here is the full colour map, and if you click your cursor over the map you can see a nice big image with no grey!

What is the capital city?
