Scripted role-play resources
Preparation
The role-play works best when your students have some understanding of the Parliament of Tasmania. If possible, do an online lesson with the House of Assembly Education Office beforehand. The lesson uses Teams and covers the structure and functions of Parliament. It takes approximately 45 minutes and has many opportunities for students to be involved and ask questions – book here.
You can also review the Parliament of Tasmania Basics PowerPoint (link) to situate your students before the lesson.
- Read the lesson plan for this role-play. This activity typically takes 75 minutes.
