Bingo Games for Reading Centers

My favorite method for practicing CVC words is to play CVC BINGO! The teacher calls out the word and students need to read the words on their card. Kids win by making a straight line like in Tic-Tac-Toe.

Differentiation: As students develop cvc reading they can play until someone fills their card or with multiple CVC Bingo cards.

Teacher uses the calling cards, while children look at their bingo card to see if they have the word. Play like Tic-Tac-Toe, 3 in a row is a winner, or play until someone has a full card. Bingo games are a fun way for students to get repeated practice.
