✁SCAN GAME: CITIZENS’ RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Citizens have many rights. Some countries give their citizens different rights than other countries. Citizens usually have the right to vote in elections or referendum. They have the right to be elected to government. They have the right to be elected to government jobs too. Citizens’ rights are also: the right to follow any religion, the right to speak freely, the right to be educated and so forth.
Citizens also have responsibilities. Voting is a right but it’s also a responsibility. Citizens must vote in elections and referendum. Citizens have the responsibility to work and pay taxes. They must respect the others.

Task 7
✁THE CITIZEN GOOSE GAME RULES
Choose one of the pieces and put it on the space START. Roll the dice and move your piece. If the dice says “3”, move three spaces forwards. When you land on a space with a drawing, you must name the right or the responsibility expressed by the drawing. If the name is correct you can stay there, if it’s not correct you must go back the same number of spaces you moved to arrive there. Then it’s the turn of the friend you have at your right. To win the game, your piece must land exactly on space 20. If a player throws too many, the piece counts the extra points backwards from the winning space. When you land on a goose space, you must continue moving backwards by the amount of your throw until you land on a space with no goose space. ✁
