PLAYING THE GAME
To play Plant Growth Bingo:
- Save a copy of the plant growth bingo boards on each student
computer (in addition to the master copies saved on your computer).
- Assign students numbers (1 through 24, for example, if you have
24 students in your class), and then have each student open the
file with the corresponding number.
- Explain to students that you are going to call out definitions.
When they hear the definition of a word that's on their board,
they should cover that word with a blue game piece. (Be sure to
have available a copy of the words and definitions from the Great
Plant Escape Glossary.)
- Point out to students that they can make extra game pieces by
clicking the blue square and clicking Edit>Duplicate (or Command
D).
- Begin calling out definitions. The first student who covers
five squares in a row vertically, horizontally, or diagonally,
is the winner. (Be sure to check the answers!)
