Coping Skills Bingo – Mindfulness & SEL Game teaching resource preview
Coping games & crafts

Coping Skills Bingo – Mindfulness & SEL Game

Dozens of uniquely arranged coping-skills bingo cards pair a 5-by-5 grid of self-regulation strategies -- breathe deep, count 1 to 10, hug a toy, squeeze ball, talk to someone, take a break -- with a matching set of calling cards a teacher reads aloud to run the game, plus a free-space center square on every card. An included how-to-use guide walks teachers through preparing and laminating materials, distributing a card and chips to each player, explaining horizontal, vertical, and diagonal winning patterns, and calling out items one at a time from the shuffled calling cards. A separate bingo-marker page supplies a printable chip or token sheet to cover called squares as they come up. The activity doubles as a bingo game and a mindfulness/SEL vocabulary review, since students must recognize and recall each coping strategy by name as it's called.
