Provided in this resource are 20 unique Bingo cards for the students. Each card has the same activities, but they are all ordered in a different way. These have a visual cue with words to be suitable for grades 1st-5th grade.

This is a great way for students to find others in the classroom that have similar interests as they do!

How to use this resource in the classroom?

• Students will walk around the room to ask students if they have done one of the items in the box. They can only ask one student one question at a time to get to know many students in the classroom. This is a great way to get students up and moving out of their desks on the first day.

How to use this resource in physical education?

• This BINGO game will have a running lap component added to it to help get some exercise added to their first day in PE class! As students find others that answer yes to a box, they should take a lap around the gym before asking another student to complete a different box. This is a perfect way to add in cardiovascular practice and classroom bonding that first week of PE!
