How to play US states bingo

  • Print one card per student and one call sheet for the teacher.
  • Call out a state name and ask students to mark the matching capital, or call the capital and ask for the state.
  • Students mark the correct answer on their card.
  • First student with a row, column, or diagonal calls bingo.
  • Review the winning states and capitals as a class.

Classroom tips

This game pairs well with a map unit. Before playing, have students locate each state on a map. You can also call states by region to focus practice on one part of the country at a time.

Printing tips

Print on standard paper for a single review session, or laminate the cards for a reusable geography center. Dry-erase markers let students play multiple rounds.
