How to Use and Play Periodic Table Bingo Game

  • Prepare the equipment by cutting out the calling pieces and playing cards.
  • Hand out one playing card along with some items to use as markers: colored paper, dried beans, small stones, etc.
  • Place the calling tiles into a container (hat, jar, basket) and shake/mix to randomize your calls.
  • Pull one tile from your container and announce the element you collected and mark the call sheet to keep track of the elements you call.
  • Players place a marker on their card if they have that element.
  • Repeat until a player has marked five elements in a row, column, or diagonal on their card and calls out Bingo. Check their card from the markers on your call sheet.

Printing Tips

The playing cards are designed to fit two to a single printed page. Occasionally, different printers have different default margins. Choosing “Fit to Page” in your print settings fixes this issue. This also allows for printing on A4 sized paper.
