About Teacher Staff Meeting bingo
Teacher Staff Meeting Bingo is built from the agenda items and side moments of a typical after-school meeting: “Bus duty schedule”, “Copier is broken”, “Lesson plans due”, “Laminator jam”, “Snacks in the back” and the hopeful “Teacher shout-out”. Principals and instructional coaches can use it to lighten a long meeting while still covering every real announcement.
42 entries make up this Teacher Staff Meeting set. With 24 per card, any single one, Clock watching for example, appears on about 57% of the cards, so in a room of 30 players around 17 of them have it.
A host reads out one entry at a time from the printed caller sheet (all 42 of them, shuffled); players daub the square if their card has it and call bingo on a full line.
