Behavior Bingo is a behavior incentive tool to add to your elementary classroom management plan. There is a Google Slides version and a PDF version. 

You can move over a piece to the bingo board for Google Slides when the students earn it. You can decide on what kind of reward system to implement. If students transition from one subject to another in a certain amount of time or if they are quiet in the hallway, they earn a bingo piece. 

This can be a part of the various classroom management strategies that you have already in your classroom. This can be used on a whiteboard or a bulletin board with the printable bingo boards and board pieces. You can laminate the board and pieces for longevity purposes. The bingo pieces can be cut out and placed in a basket or somewhere where they can be pulled out easily. When students earn a bingo piece, you or a student can pull out a bingo piece. An expo marker can be used to cross out the matching square. When students have earned four-in-a-row or have filled the whole bingo board, the students earn a reward. 

This is an excellent way to keep students motivated and your classroom management system running like a well-oiled machine. 

The product includes:

• 3 Google Slide Bingo Boards 

• 3 Printable Bingo Boards

• 3 Printable Bingo Board Pieces
