- 2nd Grade
- 3rd Grade
You will love that you can use these activities with a wide range of ages. Along with different ages, you can use them in both very small groups or larger groups.
Kids can each manege their own board or work in pairs. Don't forget to let a child pick out the calling cards, as many children love that job!
Each printable has 9 squares verses the traditional 25 to make it easier for young learners to play.
I love them as enrichment activities which reinforce topics. Or as introductory activities to get young children excited to learn something new.
Skills to Practice
- Collaboration
- Communication
- Fine Motor Skills
- Following Directions
- Identification
- Observation
- Patience!
One of the best parts about playing games with your kids is that they are fun! As your child plays they are practicing a wide variety of important skills.
From communication and fine motor skills to following directions and patience. If you are looking to incorporate games into your lesson plans, you are in the right spot!
Supplies
- Color printer
- Cardstock or regular printer paper
- Bingo chips (for ages 4 and up) or small objects
- Scissors
- Optional: laminator or clear plastic sleeves
You can use a variety of objects as bingo markers including actual bingo chips or even food. For very young children 3 and under, make sure to use an object that is not a chocking hazard.
I like to print off my cards then laminate the set. However, even printing them onto heavy weight paper including cardstock will help them to last longer.
Protecting the cards will allow you to use the game multiple times! For easy storage, I keep the entire set in a folder then label it for future use.
