Make Your Own Bingo Cards

At the coaches meeting this week, I mentioned this great Bingo site, and was asked to post the address, so here it is.

You can type in the items for the card, select the number of cards you want, and the program automatically scrambles the spaces so every card is different. The cards can be 3x3 (9 items) or 5x5 (24 items and 1 free space). I always make 5x5 and enter 24 items, so that each card will have all the items.
Some hints when you go to the site:
Under Game Boards, choose Bingo boards
Options: enter # of boards you want, choose 5x5, choose font and size (I usually use "school" for correctly made numbers)
Delete the "top 10 words" and enter your 24 items in list form.
Unclick "center space free", this puts the free space in a different place on each card.
I make the "calling cards" separately, or cut up one of the Bingo cards if being used with a small group.
I usually print these on my home printer which can take card stock. You can also print them on regular paper, then run those through the school copy machine, which usually can take card stock.
If you have trouble with this, you can email me at debra_butterworth@cape.k12.me.us or use the blog.
