FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT BINGO

 You have a bingo sheet with key words/ phrases.

 Put them wherever you like in the bingo sheet.
 Definitions will be read out and these will be numbered. If that definition matches
with a word/ phrase then write down the definition’s number in that square.
 Call out ‘bingo’ when you have a line of numbered squares. Your sheet will be
checked!

First, give participants a minute to complete the bingo sheet with the words in the
box. The words can go anywhere.

Call out the number and definition in random order (the correct terms are given in
brackets — do not read these out!).
