Bingo is fun to play during classroom parties but you can really use it all year long to practice vocabulary.
We loved playing bingo during our Halloween and Christmas parties. It was a good time filler when the kids were bouncing off the walls, but it took time to get ready. We'd put words up on the board and students would fill their boards with the words so each board was different. Now, you don't need to do that. I've done the work for you.
Each bingo game comes with 30 different boards in full color and in black and white if you want to save ink. There are also directions and teacher calling cards included. Here is a look at the editions that are included in this bundle.
Back to school bingo is great for those first few days of school where time seems to drag on and you don't have your routines and procedures in place yet. This is a great way to talk about different school supplies and even share where they are kept in your classroom.
You've done the costume parade. You've got a class full of sugared up goblins who need to be entertained and kept calm until the end of the day. Sound familiar? I've got you covered.
Halloween bingo to the rescue!
We always had the day before Thanksgiving off which meant a two day week. Two days? What are you going to do with that? Plus, it was usually right after conferences and the marking period. Perfect time to spend a few days doing Thanksgiving related activities and
Thanksgiving bingo.
Just keep calm and make it until winter break. Gifts for parents, finishing up units, a holiday party, reading The Polar Express...all the last week before Christmas break. Spend some time playing
Christmas bingo to keep your students excited but engaged.
