**Back to School BINGO is a great way to reinforce recognition of basic school supply words, subject words and more! ** Words include: ruler, Computer Lab, glue, scissors, Social Studies, Science, P.E./Gym, school bus, Art, Library or Media Center, Music, Lunch, Reading, Writing, backpack, crayons, Recess, Math, pencil and markers. I have found that pairing Kindergarteners up on a card works best because many of them have never played Bingo before. My 1st graders are good to go with their own card and if I have more than 25 students, some will eagerly want to share a card with a friend. It even makes a Great Center once you’ve taught them how to play. The students love being the caller and handing out the prize to the winner! In this set, you will find Calling Cards to cut out and use and 25 different Bingo cards. You will need to cut some squares out of construction paper to use as Bingo chips ahead of time, if you don’t have something like that already. We have a lot of fun reviewing basic school words with this game and stickers are a perfect prize for the winning pairs!
