Bingo is the word.
Bingo is a popular game of chance where players win by filling in a column, row or diagonal line on a board segmented into individual squares. Players cover the squares with tokens, matching an object, term or number on the game board to a corresponding piece that an announcer randomly pulls. The announcer calls out the object or term, and the first player to fill in a row wins and shouts "Bingo!" Making the game is easy.
Instructions
1. Draw four evenly spaced vertical lines on a piece of paper so that you have five columns. Then draw four horizontal lines on the same sheet equal distance apart so that you have five rows. Now there are 25 squares on the sheet. Repeat this step for however many players will play. If there are 10 players repeat 10 times for 10 sheets.
2. Decide what the Bingo theme will be. Traditionally, it is numbers, but it can be anything: A science teacher might pick different animals to help students learn the animal kingdom or a social studies teacher might use state capitals.
3. Write; draw; or, for less effort, print off or copy 24 of the chosen items onto squares of the same size as those on the game sheets. If you are copying or printing rather than drawing or writing by hand, go ahead and make copies for the cards, one full set for each card. Cut them apart so they are separate from one another. One set will be for the announcer's pool, and the rest will be for the cards.
4. Draw or write the same 24 items into the boxes on the original sheets. Or if you copied them in Step 3, you can glue the items onto the cards. Whichever way you do it, distribute the 24 things randomly on each sheet so that no two cards are the same, or there will be multiple winners. Make sure that the center square on each card is left open as a "free space." This makes it easier for players to win.
