#picturebooks on tumblr provided many different headings, posts and images of various picture books. I guess what I gained from doing this task was the importance that pictures have when it comes to children and reading books, pictures allow children to follow along with the story when the words may become difficult to comprehend, it also allows the reader to put an image to the words the author has written which provides the reader with the opportunity to better grasp what the author is trying to say in words.

After exploring the ABC website teaching resource, I came across the video of the aboriginal song contest 2017, this was both interesting and a great resource  for this topic as I believe students would enjoy having the opportunity to create their own song in relation to their land and culture.
