This high-quality bingo game offers a fun, active way to foster spelling, vocabulary, and listening skills. This is a great game for a whole-class activity, or to put in a classroom center for kids to work on in small groups.
Comes with:
• 25 different playing boards.
• 60 calling cards, vocabulary words and the letter of the column they are in.
• Quick Look Key - laminate and mark off to keep track of what cards were called. Helps to quickly verify winners.
• BONUS: Free Springtime Word Search Puzzle to reinforce the vocabulary used in the bingo game.
How it works:
The caller shuffles the calling cards to mix them up, then reads the top calling card. It has 2 parts:
A spelling tip to help kids locate the column to look in. For example: “This word starts with the letter ‘S’.” This guides the player to look in the “S” column.
The definition or clue, required to find the vocabulary word.
When a player has covered 6 illustrations in a row horizontally, vertically or on a diagonal, they call out “Bingo!” and the caller checks their board.
