See the game in action
Here the words appear in writing. A word is spoken (never shown in writing) and the child has ten seconds to find it on the card. If the spoken word isn’t on the bingo card, it goes in the bin. Nine hits make “Bingo!”.
How it is played
Four moments, from the map to the mechanic the child repeats each round.
1A bingo card of levels. Each opens once the previous is won.
2The level shows the card, with nine WRITTEN words. It is the first time the child sees them this way.
3A word is heard — never shown — and the child looks for it among the nine.
4Each hit marks the square. Nine hits make bingo.
Alphabetic decoding
What the child practises
Linking what is heard to what is written — decoding. It is the only one of the six where words appear in letters, and so the one that closes the path: the others train the ear, this one asks the child to find on paper what the ear recognised.
This is not a stand-alone game
Every answer feeds the child’s report, and the report decides the next activity.
