Levers And Pulleys Bingo Card

These cards are about Levers And Pulleys. Levers, pulleys and simple machines such as ramps (inclined plane) help move large or heavy objects more efficiently so less energy is needed. These include words like Class- 1 lever, block and tackle, fixed pulleys, mechanical advantage load, and slope.

How To Play Simple Machines Bingo

  1. Print out your free Levers And Pulleys bingo boards, or make custom ones with Bingo Card Creator. Click here to get started.
  2. Give one card to each player.
  3. Call off words randomly (you can read them left to right, top to bottom off a card yourself if that helps you). You can either just say a word, like "hydraulic", or you can make up a more involved clue involving hydraulic.
  4. When a word is called, each player should find it and mark it.
  5. The first player(s) to clear five words in any direction (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal) wins a small prize.

Notes: How long a bingo game lasts depends on what pace you read the clues at and how many players you have. If you read faster, such as for older or more experienced students, or if you have more players, the game tends to end more quickly. In general, I suggest allocating between twenty and thirty minutes to a bingo game. Since they can potentially end as early as the fourth word called, though that is quite rare, I encourage you to keep playing in the event of the game being over earlier than you expected it to be.
