How to Play the Morpheme BLACKOUT games.

These Morpheme BLACKOUT games are played like BINGO, except that learners are looking for word PARTS on their board.

Call a word from the Blackout Call Board and tell learners which word part they are to listen for in the word such as prefix, suffix, or word root. For example, “Cover the word root of tricycle,” {to be used with the word root games.}

Players look for the word on their board, and cover the word if they have it.

With all words that are called, I highly encourage you to give learners a minute to figure it out, then give the answer {or ask a learner to share with everyone what prefix, root, or suffix everyone should be looking for.}

Make it visual by writing the word element on the board OR displaying the word using my Morphology Pocket Chart Cards.

When a player has the entire board covered, they say, “Blackout!”
