How to set up: / I Clean the game area well, as people will sit on the floor to play the game, and keep some cleaning material close to game area.
I Store copies of bingo marking cards, color markers, a checking table, and laminated call sheets on a chair or a box.
Procedure at the station:
/ * People will sit on the floor, and the docent will call the asthma bingo clues.
* Individuals/group leaders will answer the questions and mark the appropriate boxes on their bingo marking cards.
* The first individual or team to get a horizontal, vertical or diagonal row of covered squares on the cards can yell “bingo” and the game will be over.
* Let the students take the marking cards if they wish.
Notes for trainers/guides:
/ The Objective of the Game is to complete any four squares on a card in either a horizontal (across), vertical (up and down) or diagonal (corner to corner) direction by covering the squares on the cards with the markers or by marking them with X’s, as the clues are called by the “Caller” (docent/guide).
The game is supplied with a set of cards, a quantity of markers, a checking table and a set of printed call sheets about asthma and allergy triggers.
Every row of clues in any direction on all cards is of a different combination.
To start the Game: The “Caller” would be a guide/docent who does not play the game but calls the clues, keeps the checking table, and decides the winner.
Duties of the Caller: She/he first takes all of the game materials, makes several teams out of the students or the adults and gives one card per team/individual and markers to each player.
The players then place their cards and markers in front of them on the floor.
The Caller places the checking table in front of him/her, then turns the printed clues and reads each of them.
