📚 Part 1: Multiple Choice (Knowledge check)

✏️ Part 2: Short Answers & Map Activity

ℹ️ Success Criteria, Differentiation & Extension

Success criteria — By the end of the task you should be able to:

• Describe why people migrated to Australia during the Gold Rush (push/pull).

• Locate and label at least four origin countries/regions on your map accurately.

• Show migration routes with arrows and give a short explanation of impact on Australia's population or culture.

Differentiation strategies — Teacher support and options:

• Support: Use a partially completed map with key origins pre-labelled and a checklist of steps. Work in pairs with guided questions.

• Core task: Independently locate and label four origins, draw routes, and write one short paragraph about impact.

• Extension: Research an additional migrant group (e.g., Chinese, German, American) and prepare a 1–2 minute presentation for the next lesson.

Assessment & feedback — Observe mapping accuracy, check labelled origins and explanations, and give verbal feedback focused on clarity and depth of understanding.
