Differentiated Literacy Game

Since the game board is editable, choose from CVC words, high frequency words, words for specific phonics skills and more. Enter any words your students are working on to the board.

You can also differentiate by making different boards for different groups of students. Use them in small groups to work on targeted skills!

BINGO is one of those games you need to teach once and then it can be applied to a variety of different game boards. Teach them the rules of the game and then use a variety of different boards to practice all sorts of skills during the fall season. Plus, it requires very minimal prep from you.

Did You Say Low-Prep?

After you have the bingo game board and spinner filled in with the words you want to work on, you will print them and slip them into write and wipe pockets for added durability.

You can type in 12 words total and the first 6 with auto-populate to the first game board and the first spinner. The remaining 6 words will then auto-populate to the second game board and second spinner.

You can have students play game board one and then move on to game two when they are done with the first. Or you can just make two different games with 6 words that can be used at different times.

Then just grab a transparent spinner and snap cubes or mini erasers. No need to cut anything out or do any additional prep! You can find those cute themed mini erasers at Target or online to use with seasonal games like this.

I decided to make the spinner nice and large so you don’t have to cut it out and can just use the sheet as it is. No cutting is necessary!

In addition, I have also included two additional game boards and 24 editable cards that you can use as well! This means that all 12 words will be repeated 2 times on each board and each player will draw a card that applies to both players.

How to Use the Editable Pumpkin Bingo Game

Spin the spinner and read the word you land on. Then find that word on the game board and cover it.

Continue spinning, reading, and covering words until someone gets 5 in a row.

Students can also play side by side but with two different game boards. They could even have different words on their game boards. Players spin, read, and cover words until they get 5 words in a row. The first person to achieve 5 in a row on their own game board will win.

When using the version with the cards, each card pulled from the pile will apply to both players. And each player will have their own board with the 12 words in different places.

So player one pulls a card, reads the word on it and both players cover it on their game board. Then player two pulls a card, reads the word and both players cover it on their game board. This continues until one player gets 5 in a row.
