Eighth Grade

Teacher Directions
•
Print off the cover, laminate it, and attach it to a large
manila envelope (with clasp) or gallon-size baggie. You can
include all of the pieces for this game in the envelope or
baggie so it’s easy to find and use.
•
This game plays much like classic BINGO, except the
teacher reads vocab definitions and the students match
them to the vocab words on their GMAP-O cards.
•
You can play as a whole class, or you can print multiple
copies to create several games and have the students play
in groups.

Teacher Directions
1. Print and cut the cards on the following slides. There will be 34
cards total. (I like to use heavy, colored paper and then laminate
the cards so that I can use them for a while.)
2. Place the cards in a small baggie.
3. Pull one card out of the baggie at a time and read the definition
aloud to the students. If they have the vocab word, then they
mark it out on their board. I usually read the definition twice. I
don’t say the vocab word aloud, but you can if you think your
students need it.
4. Make a pile of the cards that you call out. When someone calls,
“GMAP-O”, you can check the board with the cards in this pile.

Teacher Directions
1.
Project the following slide (GMAP-O Vocabulary List) onto the board.
2. Print off the GMAP-O blank boards for each student. (If you want to save paper, you can
print off a class set. Place them in page protectors and have the students write with
Expo markers. They can wipe the page protectors off with a tissue when finished.)
3. The students will choose 24 words from the GMAP-O Vocabulary List and randomly write
them on the spaces on their boards.
4. Print off the GMAP-O Markers page for each student. The students will cut out the globe
cards and use them as markers on their boards. *Print in black & white to save ink!
5. When everyone is finished, begin calling out the definitions. (Remind the students that
they must be silent and listen carefully because you will on say the definition twice!)
6. The first person to get 5 in a row should call out, “GMAP-O!” (I usually give out small
treats like Jolly Ranchers.)
