Listening & reading bingo grid

(0)
Use this grid for listening work, reading work or anything you can think of. The idea is that pupils, for example, listen once to a text and fill in the words they know in the middle section. They then pass it to their partner who fills in any extra words that are not in the middle section after the second time of listening. They then pass it on to someone else in the class who then fills in the darkest section on the outside of the grid with any extra words not filled in after the third time of listening. Best to use this with a challenging listening/reading.
