[ In this each sounds can write in random Order ]
2. Calling Out Blends:

The teacher will randomly call out consonant-vowel blends, such as "Si," "Mu," "Ro," and so on.
-
Students must listen carefully and find the corresponding blend on their bingo cards. They can mark it with a pen, pencil, or small sticker.
3. Matching Blends:
