Click on the document below, to see lots of sites and videos about Phar Lap....


Here are some ideas about presenting your information on Phar Lap or the Melbourne Cup:

1. Phar Lap: A Keynote slideshow/Comic Life showing facts about his life including his jockey, his trainer, his strapper how many races he won, when he won the Melbourne Cup, and any other details you find out * you could try this on iMovie, add pictures, text, music, crowd applause...i OR  The Melbourne Cup When did it start? How many horses have won it twice? three times? Famous trainers, jockeys. How long is the Melbourne Cup race? What age horses enter it? Has it ever been cancelled? And any other details you might find out!

2. Make a horse race! Add commentary. You could do this using: Stykz, SAM animation, Frame by Frame (Colour in and cut out horses to 'race' ) * you could also add these to iMovie and add text, music etc....it'll look great

3. Got another idea for presentation? Let me know what it is and I might even say 'yes'!
