MAKE A BINGO GAME WITH APPLEWORKS

Want a fun way to review words, terms, and definitions? Why not create a bingo game in AppleWorks and let students play electronically? Basic computer skills, as well as content area knowledge, are reinforced in this activity for students in grades 3-5.

How does the game work? After you create the game boards and a game piece template by following the steps in this techtorial, students open one game board each on a classroom computer. You read aloud a random definition, students look for the matching word on their game boards, and if it's found, cover it with a game piece. Five game pieces in a row spell a Bingo!

Students love this fun and engaging way to review terms and definitions for class, so let's get started!

Next: Creating the first board.
