Years 5–6; adaptable for ages 8–13. Allow around 20 minutes. A4 paper, pencils and optional colouring tools.

Run the activity

Illustrations simplify parliamentary settings. They do not show a complete seating plan or current politicians.

Adapt the activity

Read vocabulary together and accept pointing, spoken explanations or a partner scribe. For more challenge, ask learners to explain a classification, trace a ballot, or justify a sequence using the facts on the page.

Printing and use

Print on A4 at actual size. Student PDFs contain only activity pages; solutions are separate. Use in a classroom, OSHC group or family. Do not sell or redistribute the files as your own.
