Introduction to COGS Unit - Making Informed Choices - Government
This term our class will be engaged in exploring the concept of Government.
We will work towards developing an understanding of how making decisions affects all aspects of our lives.
We will be learning about aspects of Government and Democracy, including the three levels of government in Australia. We will learn about the Australian system of voting and the history of important figures in the development of democracy both in Australia and around the world.
We will develop knowledge on how a law is made and how representatives, such as our Local Mayor, State Premier and Prime Minister are elected.
By analysing and valuing different perspectives we are able to make informed choices and contribute to the democratic process.
