Civics and Citizenship is a four book series that has been designed to help teachers meet the requirements of the new Australian National Curriculum. These user-friendly resources transform an ostensibly complex topic into one that is easy to understand. The visually appealing layout of each book, coupled with the varied and practical activities, ensures that young minds will be engaged with the topics. To make life easy for the teacher, answers are provided at the back of this resource and each page references the content descriptions being assessed.

Year 5

The activities in this book help students to understand fundamental democratic values and see how these underpin the Australian electoral system. The right to vote, the secret ballot, preferential voting and proportional representation are all explained in a way which will maintain students’ interest. Specific tasks to help students recognise the significance of global citizenship are also included.
