Bingo cards
Use resource sheet 6.4 to make Bingo cards covering one to forty (using numerals). Although you might want to be the caller initially, aim to get to the point where you can give the students opportunities to be the caller.
Working takirua (in twos) with a Bingo card is a way to encourage the concept of working together to complete a task successfully by sharing information.
For a slightly more demanding extension of Bingo, ask the winner of a line or a card to read out their numbers for the caller to check.
Language tip
The prefix “taki” can be used before numbers to indicate a group of people, for example,
takitahi – singly
takirua – in pairs
takitoru – in threes
