 7B Past tense bingo
Instructions
You will need: at least one Bingo card per student

• Give one Bingo card to each student and allow them a few moments
to check the past simple verbs on their cards.
• Sit or stand in front of the class with a copy of the Master bingo card.
Call out the infinitives on the card in any order and cross them off
the card at the same time.
• If a student has the past tense of the infinitive on his/her card,
he/she should put a line through it. For example, if the teacher calls
out buy, all the students with bought on their Bingo cards should
cross it out.
• The first student who crosses out all the verbs on his/her card is
the winner. The card can be checked against the Master bingo card
if necessary.
• To repeat the activity, distribute new cards to the students and
play again.
