Step-By-Step:
- Start by getting the TESOL Day 1 PDF by clicking on the "Print" button above.
- Open the PDF and print it.
- For random calling, you can print another copy of the call list, cut, fold and then pick them randomly at play time.
- Cut the bingo cards at the cut marks if there are more than 1 bingo cards per page.
- Distribute one card per player. For marking, you can use pencils. Crayons are the cheapest.
- Pick one person to be the caller. If you are playing in a small group, the caller may also play along with their own Bingo card.
- The caller begins the game by randomly pulling an item from the call list and calling out it to everyone.
- The players check their cards to see if they have the called word. If they do, they dab that word.
- The first player to complete a horizontal, vertical, or a diagonal line of marked items yells "Bingo!" and wins the play.
- The caller checks that the items crossed off form a proper line according to the Bingo card and call list.
- You can play for varied patterns or a full card blackout for a longer play.
