A neat way to encourage learning and review geography concepts and skills during Valentine's Day week. This bingo game has a twist to it and will make learning fun and engage your students — students will number their bingo cards, making each care different and giving students ownership of their cards. The provided 88 questions range from basic locations of countries and landforms to problem-solving questions.

But, if you choose not to use the set of questions provided, any set of trivia questions will work. If you need to use this game as a review activity for term tests, change the questions to questions related to your testing topic. Create your list of questions based on the knowledge you wish for your students to gain. Or, have your students/class come up with their own set of review Geography questions.
