Explore facts about towns and tourist attractions in Central Western New South Wales. Build information reports for a tourism website. Use a model text structure and images to build information reports about Western Plains Zoo, Warrumbungle Range and Parkes. Choose titles, words and images that suit your audience and support your message. For example, use technical words such as 'open-range zoo' and 'radio telescope' to describe tourist attractions. Use aspects of visual grammar to choose an image focused on the most relevant part of a scene. Link ideas through the layout, paragraphs and headings.
