How to use CrissCross Bingo

🎲 How to play

Students each have a unique board. A caller draws a flashcard or rolls a vocabulary die. Students mark matching images or words on their board. First to get a row, column, or diagonal calls “CrissCross!” and wins. Full rules →

🟨 What to use as the caller

Use physical flashcards from MES-English, the vocabulary dice maker, or the online flashcard deck at MES-English. The online deck “deck of cards” mode works great on a smartboard or in online lessons.

👤 Large class tips

You don’t need 30+ unique boards. Make 6–8 boards, print 5 copies of each, and split students into small groups of 6. Smaller groups dramatically increase speaking time per person and keep everyone engaged.

📋 Laminate & reuse

Print and laminate your boards so students can mark them with dry-erase markers. A bit of assembly effort up front creates a classroom resource you can use for years across different vocabulary topics.
🆕 Minimum selections needed For a 3x3 board you need at least 3 down and 3 across. Enter more than the minimum for greater variety between boards. Fill all 10 slots for maximum uniqueness across your 6 generated boards.
💡 Randomize all choices By default, down and across selections stay on their respective axes. Tick “Randomize all choices” to shuffle everything together so any selection can appear anywhere on the board.
📄 Printing tips 3x3 boards print two per page. 4x4 and 5x5 boards print one per page. If boards are getting cut off, reduce the top, bottom, and side margins in your browser’s print settings.
