We hope the following resources are helpful to anyone seeking to ‘word up’. Note that some of the resources are from overseas, and may contain phrases and ideas that are not widely used or known within Australia. Because of this, it may help to look at the Australian resources first.
We don’t pretend that these resources represent a complete list, so if you know of a useful resource not on this list, or if you find some of those listed less helpful than others, please send
the details to admin@juliafarr.org.au.
