Conjunctions Bingo Cards

A game for the unit on connecting words. Read a sentence aloud with a blank and students mark the conjunction that fits — and, but, because — so the first to a line shows they can join two ideas correctly.

Free to design and print · edit any square · 3×3, 4×4, or 5×5

Conjunctions bingo makes a dry grammar topic into something students actually want to play. Each square is a real conjunction, so as you read sentences with a missing word, students decide whether and, but, or because makes the idea hold together.

Start from the template, keep the squares below or focus it on coordinating or subordinating conjunctions for a targeted lesson, and print a card for every student. Each card is shuffled from the same list, so no two grids match and everyone listens to win.

Ideas for your game
  • Read a sentence with a gap

    Say a sentence with the conjunction missing and let students choose which word on their card completes the idea correctly before they mark it.

  • Focus on one type at a time

    Edit the squares to use only coordinating or only subordinating conjunctions, so the game reinforces the specific category from today's lesson.

  • Print a stack or play on phones

    Print a class set on letter or A4 paper, or share one link and a QR code so students play from their own devices during the lesson.

Editable and printable

Edit every square. Open the card in the editor, keep the suggested squares or replace them with your own words, emoji, or photos, and pick a theme that fits the day.

Print a whole set at once. Each card is shuffled from the same square list, so every player gets a unique grid. Print to standard letter or A4 paper on any home printer — or order professionally printed cards shipped to your door.

Or play live. Share one link and a QR code and the whole room plays from their phones, in person or over video.

Questions

How do I make conjunctions bingo cards for free?

Open the editor, choose a theme, keep the conjunction squares or type your own, and print. You can design and print a basic class set without paying.

Which conjunctions should I include?

The squares cover common coordinating and subordinating conjunctions, but you can edit every square to match the exact list your curriculum teaches.

How many cards do I need for a class?

One per student. Each card is shuffled from the same square list, so a class of any size gets unique grids and everyone plays a fair game.

What grade level is this best for?

It fits upper elementary through middle school grammar, and you can shrink to a 4×4 grid with fewer conjunctions for younger learners.
