Reading Bingo
Use the link below to download a copy of this free reading bingo printable (I included a black and white version too if you want to save on ink). Print 1 copy for each child. I recommend card stock and laminating if you want to reuse it. White board markers work great to cross the boxes off and will erase. Mar 18, 2020 I just modified my summer reading bingo that I shared here. So some of the spaces are the same and I’ve changed it so everything is doable with people staying at home. I also just made it in a black and white version so it can be easily shared with families. Click the big green box below to download the Free Printable Reading Bingo.
