Make phonics practice an adventure with Classroom Phonics Scavenger Hunt Bingo! This engaging game combines the excitement of a scavenger hunt with phonics learning, getting students up, moving, and exploring their environment while they master key literacy skills.
What’s Included:
- 30 Bingo Cards: Each card is filled with classroom-friendly items like “pen,” “hat,” and “rug” that reinforce short vowel sounds and CVC words, making it easy for students to find matching items all around them.
- Calling Cards: A set of phonics-based calling cards prompts students to find specific sounds and words on their Bingo boards.
- Clear Instructions: Easy-to-follow instructions guide teachers on how to play the game, set up, and keep students engaged and learning.
Skills Covered:
- Phonemic Awareness: Students listen carefully for specific sounds, helping them identify short vowel sounds and practice sound blending.
- Vocabulary Building: Each Bingo board includes familiar classroom items, reinforcing common vocabulary words while promoting word recognition.
- Sound-Symbol Correspondence: The game reinforces the connection between sounds and letters, enhancing early reading and spelling skills.
- Visual Discrimination & Observation: Students search for items around the classroom, developing visual awareness and attention to detail.
How It Works:
The teacher draws a calling card, prompting students to find and mark items that match the phonics clues on their Bingo boards. For example, the teacher might say, “Find something with the short /a/ sound, like ‘cap’!” Students then search the room for a “cap” or cover the image on their card. The first student to get a full row or column shouts, “Bingo!”
Perfect for centers, group activities, or whole-class fun, Classroom Phonics Scavenger Hunt Bingo is an exciting way to practice phonics in a real-world context. Get ready to turn phonics learning into a game that kids won’t want to stop playing!
