“WORDO” • Procedures:• Teacher distributes empty “WORDO”
cards. (The 9 block card can be run 2 per page and cut in half.)
• Have students fill in “WORDO” card with 9 words that are being studied. There may be more vocabulary words but students get to choose the 9 that they want to put on their “WORDO” card.

“WORDO” • “WORDO” is played just like BINGO. Pass
out covers-metal markers. Poker chips or colored pieces of paper (cut into 2”x2” squares) also work well as covers.
• Teacher announces the game type (X, diagonal, four corners, etc.)

“WORDO” • Teacher calls out the definition for one word.
Students silently identify which vocabulary word fits the definition that was just given.
• Then the student covers the box with the corresponding vocabulary word with the marker, chip or paper that matches the definition.
• You can decide if students can keep their Vocabulary Notebooks or flashcards open on their desk for use during the game.

“WORDO” • When a student gets an X, diagonal, or four
corners, as was determined for that round, they call out “WORDO”.
• The student must stand up and do one of two things: (Depending on the ability grouping)
• For beginning students: pronounce each word that they covered.
• For more advanced students: pronounce each word and give the definition for each of the words they covered.

“WORDO” • After a student has gotten “WORDO” and the
words and definitions have been confirmed, have students clear their cards and start another round of “WORDO”.
• Students are given bonus points or candy for winning a round of “WORDO”.
• Try to use different words during the subsequent rounds because a student won’t have all of the words on their card and if you don’t call all of the words at least once during the rounds, a student will never get to cover a particular word that they chose to include.
