Bingos
We believe learning should be self-directed and fun, and Bingos are designed to do just that. Bingos encourage exploring the immediate nature around homes, neighborhoods, and schools – promoting close observation, engaging multiple senses, and making learning a delightful game for both young students and adults. Use these diverse themes of Bingos to make your nature exploration all the more exciting!
Note for Educators
Suggested Instructions for use: Distribute the Nature Bingo sheets and explain the goal- to find at least three items in a row or a column (or all items, for a longer activity!) in their immediate surroundings. To add a layer of exploration, encourage students to use all their senses while exploring and looking for the items on the bingo. Once they find three in a row/column, they can shout out 'BINGO!' This can be a great individual exploration or a fun group challenge, fostering observation skills, collaboration, and a connection to their local environment.
Questions to Explore: What was easy to find? What was a challenge? What new things did they notice? What did they find that was not on the Bingo?
