DESCRIPTION
Here’s a chance for students to stretch their legs by moving around. This is also a great way to get to know their classmates! This definitely won’t work with low-level students.
Instructions
- Each student asks lots of students in the class one question from this sheet.
- He or she must ask each student a different question and write the students’ names and answers in the correct box on this sheet.
- When they have filled in all the boxes, they should return to their seat.
- When the teacher calls out the name of a student they have marked down on their sheet, they should put an “X” in that box. When they have 5 “Xs” across, down, or diagonally, they have won the game. The student should raise his/her hand and say “BINGO!” to let the
teacher know they have finished. - Since several students may have the same family name, they should write the first letter of that student’s first name down with the last name.
- When finished, they can keep the sheet to remember interesting facts about their classmates.
