POLYGON BINGO

POLYGON BINGO is a Grade 5 geometry game for distinguishing polygons from non-polygons. The caller announces a numbered space and whether the figure should be a polygon or not a polygon; students inspect that numbered figure on their own bingo board and cover it only if it matches the description. The game makes students apply the definition of a polygon repeatedly to different shapes.

Use it with a small group, partners, or the whole class when students are learning which attributes make a figure a polygon. Ask students to justify one covered or uncovered example after each round to keep the classification reasoning visible.
