Apostle Bingo
Credit Unknown - transferred from lds-yw

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.
