At The Optician Bingo
Educational bingo games are a great way for pupils to learn so many different skills. They help with listening skills, visual discrimination, group work, turn taking and the reinforcement of the learning content of that particular bingo game.
This bingo game focuses on the theme of “At the Optician” and it features images like glasses, optician, receptionist, eye chart etc. It is aimed at a group of six pupils, so it would be useful for Station Teaching or for Aistear work on the theme of the optician.
