Sub Plans - Art Bingo!

Dear Sub, 

This is pretty fun and easy. Each student gets one Bingo card. From the 30 options listed, they choose 24. They should write ONE in each square. They can mix them up anyway they’d like. This way, everyone should have a unique card. It will probably take about 10 minutes for all students to fill their card. For students who have difficulty writing, they can just write in the number. 

For markers, you can use beans or gem stones, or even torn collage paper. I don’t recommend X-ing them off with pencil because you will be able to get three or four games in. 

I read the definitions and examples first, and wait for a student to shout out the answer. Then I confirm the answer. 

As you confirm the art terms called, I recommend writing them on the white board so you know which ones you’ve called (especially if a student knocks their markers off). 

I’ve attached the definition/clues, as well as enough Bingo sheets for a full day (three classes). 

I MIGHT have candy or prizes. If so, they are in the drawer to the left of the sink. Feel free to use these for winners or good behavior. 

Thank you!!
