Work together to complete a Bingo-either 5 across, 5 down, 5 diagonally, or go all out and complete the blackout! Complete each task and then check that off once it’s completed.Read through the cards and start planning! Help them learn concepts or words that they may not understand.

Each card is designated for a different grade levels-elementary, middle, and high school.

Print out a card for each person playing.

Note that many of the tasks come from the Nebraska Social Studies Standards. Print one card per person and let them be creative with their tasks to complete a BINGO. There are three different grade levels of cards-elementary, middle, and high school-so that everyone can participate!Įach card contains 24 (plus a 'Free Space') interactive financial literacy tasks to get these kids thinking about their finances!

Glue the strips down to a piece of white cardstock to make even squares (as seen in picture).

5 inch strips of black cardstock (can be thicker if your student has residual vision). Place them on the removable pieces based on their group/cardstock color.

After contractions are brailled on the APH braillable labels, cut them out and peel off the back.

*** Beware of the glare caused by many types of lamination! Laminate all squares for durability and cut out of lamination.Cut a corner of the squares for easy recognition.Cut all cardstock into 1.5 inch squares (number of squares depends on the number of contractions).Choose the number of colors of cardstock you will need (depends how you want to group the contractions).Piece of felt as a “board” for the removable pieces.When the student gets “bingo” you can have them reread the pieces they’ve removed to solidify understanding. The game can be completed when the student gets four in a row, diagonal, 4 corners, etc., as determined by the instructor. You call a contraction/symbol, the student searches for it, removes it from the board, and then you call another. The teacher fills the board with the pieces they want to use based on what is being taught and then the game is played like normal bingo. This is a simple bingo game that can be adapted based on the contractions your student is learning, or struggling with, and needs more practice. Braille Bingo will enhance your students’ word recognition and overall braille literacy skills.
