This document provides instructions for using educational bingo in the classroom. It can be adapted for any subject or age level by creating bingo cards with topic-related words, phrases, or problems. Teachers can have students make the cards themselves to practice writing. Playing bingo engages students in listening, speaking, reading and writing as they cover words called out. It is suggested to use bingo as a warm-up activity and to give prizes to motivate students. Teachers can also play bingo internationally through eTwinning projects.

specially prepared bingo cards containing items
related to the subject. For example, in a
chemistry class you might use the names of
elements, compounds or chemical... In a math
class, you might use mathematical problems. In
a geography class, you might use the names of
countries, states, provinces, cities, rivers or
mountains. And in a foreign language class,
you could play bingo using words of
English,French, German or Spanish vocabulary
that students are learning.

• The beauty of bingo is that you can adapt the
game to almost any subject or age range of
students. Additionally, you can play the game in
a variety of different ways: you could play a
"normal" game with the teacher as caller, you
could have the teacher call out "clues" instead of
the items on the cards, you could ask students
to explain the items as they check them off from
their bingo cards, or you could even have class
discussions during the game after each item is
called.

7. Which theme?

Bingo game. Nearly any educational topic
works. You can focus on letter, number
and word recognition for younger kids. For

vocabulary words, tenses,history events
or math facts.

8. Writing..

will go in the squares. You'll want the
same set for each Bingo game board.
Print a copy of the list and cut the words
apart. This set of words is used during the
game play.
