  • Activity
  • Join to access all included materials

If your class is learning about polyatomic ions and needs a fun way to study those chemicals, then a bingo game might be right up your alley. This bingo game is intended to boost memorization skills, specifically the names of tricky polyatomic ions. Each bingo card will need to be created using large, bold, traceable lettering, or braille. Your learners with visual impairments can help make the game pieces to practice spelling and writing, and to reinforce the chemical names. After the class creates the game pieces, the class can play a great game of bingo, chemistry style.
