Materials
needed:
1 set of Bingo sheets
1 set of flash cards
(some books need to be repeated)
3 person teams
3 tables per team
1 large room
Setup:
1 table has
the flashcards
1 table has
at least 3 bingo cards
1 table is
the finish line for filled out bingo cards
1 person
stationed at the flashcard table
1 person
stationed at the bingo card table (to be filled out)
1 person to
be runner
Object of the
game is to fill out “bingo” on at least 3 different cards and have them
delivered to the final table by the runner.
The person at
the Bingo Bible table calls out for a flashcard to the flash card table
person - who then hands the card to the runner. The runner takes the card to
the Bingo Bible table.
The cycle
repeats itself until one Bible bingo card has a bingo then the runner takes
that one Bible bingo card to the finish line table. He has to make a trip
for each Bible bingo card filled out and has to have the flash cards with
it. More than one Bible bingo card can be worked on at a time, but only one
Bible bingo card can be transferred to the finish line table at a time. The
first team to complete all Bible bingo cards at his table and transfers them
by the runner to the finish line table wins.
The problem
is that there are limited Bible bingo opportunities between the flashcard
table and the Bible bingo card table. If you use the wrong flashcard on the
wrong Bible bingo card you will not finish all three or more Bible bingo
sheets on your table. The benefit then of the caller of the Bible bingo
table is to send a sheet to the line when he/she is certain he does not need
a particular flashcard on another Bible bingo sheet.
Complexity:
To make game
easier or harder, you can add identical books to the flashcard set.
Another twist
is to have the cards face down and only turn up one at a time until the
right flashcard
that is asked for by the caller is found.
To quicken
the game have all cards face down and arranged in order or face up to
make it even quicker.
You can play
the game either by timing it and/ or by competing teams.
If you have
the room all teams can play at the same time.
