BINGO
The questions are in a bingo-style format. Students read the informational text about the Elections, then they answer questions on the bingo grid. The grid comes in 26 different versions. Having each student use a different version of the answer grid will allow you to reinforce the content of the informational text by playing a game of bingo.
HOW TO PLAY:
The first page is an answer key, which can be used to play the game of bingo. Cut up each square, place them in a Ziploc bag or container of your choice, and call out questions. Students must answer the question correctly and have 5 in a row: up, down, or diagonally. Students can use counters or treats to keep track of the questions.
