How to use it in class

  1. Who calls. Call the first round yourself from the caller's checklist: say each word twice, don't show the picture, tick it as you go. From round two the winner calls — the list has pictures, so non-readers can call too.

  2. How to mark. Counters, not pencils: buttons or scraps of paper on the squares — or slip each card into a plastic sleeve and use a whiteboard pen. Clear the card, swap with a neighbour, and one printout lasts all week.

  3. Ending fast. Three in a row wins, checked out loud: the winner says their three words in English while you find them on your list. Out of time? Stop at the first winner. Time to spare? Play on for a full card.

Questions teachers ask

How much does it cost?

Nothing. All 55 topics open and print free, with no sign-up.

What age is it for?

Ages 3–11. Listen, find the picture, mark it — no reading. The words in every topic are beginner level; the age range comes from what the sheet asks of the child.

How many different bingo cards can I print?

Choose 2, 4, 6 or 8 cards — every one different, two to an A4 page — and the caller's checklist prints after them. “New cards” deals a fresh set from the same words.
