How to run this activity

1. Join using the QR code or join code, or use your printed bingo card.

2. Find someone who matches each statement on your card. The words “Find someone who…” are implied at the start of every square, not printed inside each square.

3. Only mark a square after a brief, genuine conversation. You may use the same person for more than one square if the group is small.

4. Complete one row, column or diagonal to call BINGO.

5. Keep it relaxed: anyone can skip a question, and the instructor can end with a few favourite discoveries.
