About this template

Looking for a creative way to help students memorize chemical element symbols? This Periodic table bingo game makes symbol recognition fun and memorable.

How to play

  1. Have students fill out their Bingo cards with chemical symbols from either the embedded 'Elements song' or from their notes.
  2. Use the randomizer to call out element names.
  3. Students mark the matching symbol if it's on their card.
  4. First student to get 4 in a row shouts "BINGO!"

note:

The Randomizer widget currently contains all elements. If you are teaching younger students who may not know all of them, just head into the widget settings to edit the list.
