Title - Typing Bingo
By - Jodi Cochran
Subject - Computers & Internet
Grade Level - 4th or 5th
Overview:
After students have learned how to use the tab key, they produce a bingo card.
Purpose:
To improve the use of the tab key while playing a game.
Objective:
Students will be able to set up a bingo card using the appropriate tab settings. They will also be able to highlight text and underline the word they can cross off.
Resources/Materials:
Computer and Word processing software
Activities and procedures:
Students must already know how to use tabs to set up columns.
To begin students are given 5 categories to be typed at the top of each column. (Ex: Colors, Food, Cities, Animals, Sports) To speed up play, the teacher should give the 5 items that will go under each category. (Ex: Under Colors: Red, Green, Yellow, Blue, Purple and under Food: popcorn, ice cream, pizza, hamburger, french fries, Cities: New York, Boston, Los Angeles, Dallas, Sedalia (my hometown), Animals: Horse, dog, cat, dragon, snake, and Sports: football, basketball, golf, baseball, volleyball). It helps if you write this information on the board. You then tell the students under each category for line/row 1 they are to type the items they like best. (ex: green, pizza, New York, dog, baseball). Then in row 2 they should type their second favorite. Row 3 they should type their third favorites, etc) Remember they are tabbing across the row under each column.
Once the students have finished their bingo cards it is time to play. One at a time, each student will call out a category, item and placement (ex: Under Sports my first choice is baseball) Anyone who has baseball as their first choice can highlight the word and then underline it so they know it has already been called out. You can play where they have to get all in one column marked off, or one in each column. Customize to fit your needs. My students love to play this after learning how to set up columns using the tab key. It is a great way to get them to participate without them feeling it is work.
