Free Printable Synonyms and Antonyms Bingo Cards
Students match words by meaning. The caller gives a clue for a word on the list without saying the word itself, either a synonym ("a synonym for large") or an antonym ("the opposite of small"), and students cover the answer, here "Big". Each word has a familiar partner, and no word on the list is a synonym or antonym of another, so a clue points to one square.
How to play synonyms and antonyms bingo
- Set the number of players, then press Print or save as PDF. Each player gets a different card.
- Call items in random order with the built-in caller, or use the printed call list.
- Players mark each called square. The first to complete a row, column or diagonal shouts "Bingo!"
Tip: Sample calls: "glad" or "sad" for Happy, "quick" or "slow" for Fast, "wealthy" or "poor" for Rich, "start" or "finish" for Begin. Play one round with synonyms only and a second with antonyms, and always say which kind of clue you are giving.

Questions and answers
Are the bingo cards really free?
Yes. You can print up to 10 unique cards per game at no cost, as often as you like, without creating an account. The optional Unlimited Pass is for larger groups.
How do I save the cards as a PDF?
Press "Print or save as PDF". In the print window choose "Save as PDF" as the printer. On a phone, use the share or print option in the preview that opens.
Is every card different?
Yes. Each card is shuffled separately from your list, so players cannot all win at the same time. The more items your list has beyond the number of squares, the more the cards differ.
Can I use my own words?
Yes. Replace the list with your own words or phrases, one per line. A 5×5 card with a free space needs at least 24 items, a 4×4 card needs 16 and a 3×3 card needs 8.
What paper should I use?
Normal printer paper works. Card stock lasts longer if you plan to reuse the cards. The layout fits both US Letter and A4.
