Classroom Activities

Free printable classroom activities: bingo cards, flashcards, certificates, memory games, story prompts and graphic organisers. A4 or US Letter.

Things to print when the lesson needs to change shape

This category is the miscellaneous drawer, and deliberately so. It holds the resources that are not a worksheet in the usual sense, bingo cards, flashcards, dice, spinners, certificates, name tags, hall passes, banners and cut-out games. Individually they are small. Collectively they are most of what a classroom actually runs on between the formal activities.

Everything prints at A4 or US Letter with cut lines where cutting is expected, and the card-based sets are laid out so a sheet yields a usable number of cards rather than four large ones.

Graphic organisers do the heavy lifting

If you only take one group from this category, take the organisers. Venn diagrams, KWL charts, T-charts, concept and mind maps, Frayer models, story maps, timelines, cause-and-effect frames and debate planners all do the same underlying job: they give a learner somewhere to put a thought before it has to become a sentence. For anyone who freezes at a blank page, that scaffold is usually the difference between no writing and some writing.

They also work as assessment. A completed Frayer model shows whether a term is understood far more clearly than a definition copied from a board.

Games, rewards and the admin

The game set, bingo in numbers, words and pictures, memory and matching cards, dominoes, snap, cootie catchers, board game templates, escape room kits and scavenger hunts, is built to be filled with your own content, so the same template covers a vocabulary review, a times-tables drill or an end-of-term party.

The reward and behaviour sheets (punch cards, brag tags, sticker charts, star of the week, certificates) are worth using sparingly and specifically; a certificate that names what was actually done carries considerably more weight than a weekly one. And the administrative templates, permission slips, substitute teacher plans, seating charts, exit tickets, observation sheets and rubrics, cover the paperwork that otherwise gets rebuilt from scratch every year.
