FAMOUS NOVELISTS BINGO GAME - Includes 40 Influential Authors & Their Works
- PDF
Description
Your students will be able to review a ton of information as they are having fun playing this BINGO game all about some of the world's most renowned authors. The calling cards contain a brief description of each author's style, along with the names of three of their most important works, the period of time in which they lived, and their nationality. Included are 40 author calling cards and 30 unique bingo game boards.
Use this resource to teach about:
- Name
- Dates of Life
- Examples of three of their works
- Style
- Nationality
You can make the game more difficult by calling out the style description or the name of a novel, rather than author's name. Or if you feel like making it easier, just go with the name of the author. Students will still be familiarizing themselves with all of the many possibilities for reading enjoyment.
We recommend that you laminate the boards and cards so that you can use them over and over. Equip your independent learning center with this game and kids will have something that is sure to quietly entertain them as they are learning. BINGO can be played with as few as two players and it is a game that is quickly understood by all ages.
The cards just by themselves also make an engaging learning resource. Just by reviewing the information on the cards students will be enriching their knowledge of the literary world.
