Option 2: Google Sheets

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 in cell A1.
  • Do not edit any cell with a blue background.

Step 2: Publish Your Spreadsheet

  • Go to File, Share, 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.
