Apostle Bingo

Here's a game my kids have enjoyed:

I copied off a 5x5 Bingo grid - titled "APOSTLE BINGO" - each student wrote 25 names of the current 12 Apostles and Latter-Day Prophets . . . obviously, not all will fit - they have to choose who to put on their Bingo cards.

They all have little pieces of sunshine (I copied off lots of little sun faces and cut them into squares for markers - they keep their own sunshines in snack baggies in their binders) and we begin to play - but instead of the usual questions, I pull out the 8-1/2x11 pictures of the current Apostles and Latter-Day Prophets (The Prophets came out of the Gospel Art Picture Kit and the Apostles are ordered as a set from Distribution (about $4.50 for the set)  

This way, they get to put a face with a name.  They are getting better (although they think every Prophet with a beard is Lorenzo Snow!?!?)  The Prophet pictures don't have the names on the front, which is good - but the Apostles all have the names at the bottom, so hold the pictures with your fingers over the names.

Depending on time, go for a Line Bingo or a blackout.  This also works great for SCRIPTURE BINGO - they list their 25 references in each box - I read the scripture/clue. Line Bingo works best on this - everyone will get blackout!
 

I gave everyone a plastic sleeve to keep all these games in. You can adapt this a lot of ways - with questions for Church History questions, facts about Prophets, etc.
