Lesson plan
Explain that the children will play a game to help recall vocabulary from all six units of KS2 whole-class instrumental lessons. Let them know that the winner will be the first child to call out ‘Bingo!’ when they cross out three words in a row (vertically, horizontally or diagonally).
Display the Presentation: Key vocabulary bingo and hand each child a whiteboard and pen. Ask the children to divide their whiteboards into a three-by-three grid and choose nine words from the list on the slide, writing one in each box.
