Bingo Marker Stamping Games are basically the same game as a regular bingo game. These games are very versatile. They can be used to practice both letters and numbers or even shapes or sight words. They can be made to fit the individual needs of your group or a specific student. Each game is blank, and you can quickly fill in the letters or numerals you decide to focus on.
How to Prepare the Bingo Marker Stamping Games
To prepare the bingo marker stamping games, print out the game that matches your current theme. Write a letter, numeral, or shape (whatever is your focus skill) on each picture, and make a copy for each child. You could make each child’s game card different, like typical bingo games. I usually make them all the same, and every child wins at the same time. At the preschool level, it works out better when everyone wins. They aren’t yet mature enough to deal with competition and winning or losing.
How to Play the Bingo Marker Stamping Games
To play the game, children will pull a number or letter card from a stack (or roll a game die). They will find that letter/numeral on their mat, and stamp it out. You can use rubber stamps or bingo dot markers. As an alternative, you can have children draw an “X” over the picture if neither is available.

Karen,
There are tons of things for PreK teachers on TeachersPayTeachers but what I totally appreciate about your stuff is how simple and practical everything is. I teach kids with special needs and all I can say is – it’s a good thing I don’t have my color printer and laminator at home with me this weekend because I’d be printing everything on your site! Well done!

Hi, you need to read the solutions on this page: http://www.prekinders.com/printing-problems/
There’s nothing wrong with the printable, it’s likely either an old version of Adobe on your computer, or the browser you’re using.
I seem to be doing something wrong. I have printed from every computer I have access to and all your bingo cads come out black. I really really want to use them but can not get them to print properly. Any suggestions?

Great teaching ideas, I really appreciate your work
I love the bingo cards! Such a cute idea. I’m hoping to play it with my story time group. Do you give all the kids the exact same card or do you change the letters/numbers around a little bit?
I often give kids the exact same card. That way everyone wins at the same time and there’s no frustration. Every now and then, I might change them around.
That way everybody is a winner! Great idea! Thank you.
