    3. Equipment needed:
    Bingo card, bingo chips, bingo balls and cage/machine/person to generate and state
    numbers.
    4. Activity Description –
    • First, the individuals playing the game will be given a bingo board and chips.
    • After all of the supplies have been given out, the leader will explain the rules.
    • If there is a free space on the bingo board, everyone can put a bingo chip on that
    space.
    • The caller, the person who reads the numbers, will state a number to the group.
    • If you have the number that was said, you take one of the chips in front of you
    and put it on that number spot on the bingo board.
    • The game continues on with the caller saying numbers and individuals who have
    those numbers marking the spot on their board.
    • The first person to get a straight line of chips across the board (one for each letter
    of BINGO) wins the game.
    5. Primary social interaction pattern(s) (activity analysis)
    The primary social interaction pattern that is being displayed in this activity is aggregate
    interaction. Bingo is considered aggregate interaction because each individual has their
    own board and is not interacting with one another, just waiting for the numbers to be
    called out and putting the necessary chips on their board.
    6. Adaptation:
    Using bingo boards with enlarged numbers and letters could be a beneficial adaptation
    for individuals with dementia. This could be beneficial because if individuals are having
    problems reading the things on the board, larger fonts may help the individual follow
    along easier. Another adaptation that may be helpful would be doing the game within a
    smaller group. This could be beneficial because everyone will have less distractions, feel
    more relaxed and feel less agitation towards others.

    Participant: 75-year-old woman diagnosed with early onset dementia.


    Early onset dementia is when an individual develops dementia in their 40s and 50s.
    People who have early onset dementia can be in any stage of dementia. It is hard for
    doctors to determine an accurate diagnosis for early onset dementia because Alzheimer's
    does not normally affect young individuals. Dementia affects each individual very
    differently so each person's symptoms will vary. Individuals who are diagnosed with
    early onset dementia could be in early, middle or late stages of dementia. About 200,000
    individuals in the United States are diagnosed with early onset dementia. There is no
    known cause of early onset dementia at such an early age, but researchers have found rare
    genes that could be the cause of Alzheimer's within families. If it is caused by one of
    these genes, it is called "familial Alzheimer's disease and generations of that family could
    be affected.
