Get Getting To Know You Bingo - Ccim

It takes concentration and listening skills to play a game of Bingo, and by exercising these skills, cognitive abilities are sharpened.

The most teacher-friendly way to do Bingo is to give each child a blank piece of paper and have them fold it into sixteenths. Then they get to write the terms into their bingo sheet from your list (on the chalkboard or overhead) and voila! Everyone has their own unique Bingo board!

Modification Suggestions: Bingo cards can be used for just about any content area to reinforce definitions, new vocabulary, math problems, even long thought out questions. Update words and pictures for appropriate topics. Add sound effects.

Average number of turns to achieve BINGO = 42.3 (red line). Standard deviation: 9.86. From the results of my simulation, we see that a bingo game is slightly skewed to the right (longer games are more common). Overall, we should expect 42 to 43 numbers to be called before a single player achieves a BINGO.

Explain that the group has 30 minutes to mingle, introduce themselves, and find people who match the traits on the card. They must put the person's name in the corresponding box or have the person sign the appropriate square. The first person to fill five boxes across or down yells "Bingo!" and the game is over.

Everybody gets the the same words, but in a different order. Each time the teacher calls out a word, the student searches for the right square on his card and marks it. The first student to have five words highlighted in a row yells 'Bingo', and wins.

Playing Get to Know You Bingo is easy and fun. To start, each player receives a custom bingo card with a grid of squares containing questions or prompts. The objective of the game is to complete a row or column of squares on the card by finding other players who match the description in each square.
