Want to Make Your Own Bingo Boards?

Step 1: Modify the Google Spreadsheet Template

• Make a copy of this template. (You'll need to sign-in with your Google account.)
• Edit the Terms. Use as many terms as you want, but you need at least 25 to fill a Bingo board. The more terms you use, the longer it will take someone to win.
• Use the optional AltTerms column if you want to call different terms than what's on the board. For example, the boards have English words, but you call Spanish words.
• Label your Bingo boards by changing the name of the worksheet (at the bottom).
• Do not edit any cell with a blue background.

Step 2: Publish Your Spreadsheet

• Go to File, Publish to the Web…, then click Publish.
  

Step 3: Get Your Flippity.net Link

• Click on the Get the Link Here tab of the template (at the bottom).
• Click on the Flippity.net link to see the list of terms, print out Bingo boards, or get a link to online Bingo boards.

Step 4: Bookmark and Share

• Bookmark the page to find it again quickly.
