Picture Liturgical Bingo
Need: milk caps to be markers, bingo cards
(Print bingo cards out on card stock. Laminate or cover with clear contact paper to make them last.)
Directions: Students play regular bingo, but they answer questions about Liturgical items used at Mass. The teacher asks one student at a time a question or clue from the list below. The student answers the question and the class looks for the picture on their bingo card. The first student who gets three in a row (up, down, across, or diagonal) on their bingo card first, wins. Use the cards from Liturgical Go Fish/Memory to show the students if they need help with identifying the objects that are called out.
