Responsibility is a key word in character education. This bingo game addresses the five areas in which a person should be responsible--self, home, friends, school, and the world.

Responsibility for self includes actions such as wearing clean clothes, avoiding drugs, resisting peer pressure, and reading good books. Responsibility for the world includes recycling, turning lights off when not needed, and picking up trash on the ground. Home responsibilities include cleaning your room, feeding your pets daily, and putting dirty dishes in the sink. School responsibilities include following directions, writing neatly, and listening. Responsibilities to friends include taking turns, talking out problems, and being honest. Each responsibility topic has at least nine issues. Also included are reproducible activity sheets to further extend these concepts. Packaged in a zip lock plastic bag for easy storage.
