How to Play Form a Friendship Bingo
This Form a Friendship Bingo Game is simple to prep and easy to play—no additional materials needed!
- Print or assign a Find a Friend board to each student.
- Have students walk around and talk to their peers to find someone who fits a square (e.g., “likes to play soccer”).
- The matching classmate signs their name in the box.
- Play as traditional Bingo (3 in a row) or as a “complete the board” challenge for a longer activity.
To deepen conversations, encourage students to ask follow-up questions. For example, if a square says “has a pet,” students might ask, What kind of pet do you have? or What’s your pet’s name?
We have included four variations of each Find a Friend worksheet featuring different conversation prompts.
