How to use this resource

In order to use this resource effectively, we recommend following the steps below. We tried a few different ways of playing the game, and through trial and error, we found this system the most useful. The game supplements the activities in the Year 2 KSSR textbook Phonemic Awareness sections. If teachers are finding difficulty with the activities provided by the book, they can cover the necessary language and vocabulary demands by using this simple and fun game.

Preparation
Step 1: -Choose the unit below and cut and paste the page into a word document Step 2: -Divide the number of students you have in half=the number of pages you need (for example if you have 30 students, you need 15 pages; 24=12 pages, etc.) since there are two cards/page Step 3: -Copy and paste the document as many times as pages needed Step 4: -Change one or two words in each card so they are not all the same (otherwise every student gets Bingo at the same time) Step 5: -Print the pages, cut the cards, laminate

Playing the game

Step 1: -Divide SS into teams Step 2: --Draw an empty game card on the board and ask: How many spaces/boxes are here? (9) How many words are on each card? (9) How many boxes make Bingo? (3)

Step 3: -Show how to win at Bingo by checking 3 boxes and asking, Is this Bingo?, etc.; do this a few times to make sure they know Bingo must be three boxes in a row diagonally, vertically, or horizontally
