What's new
Every change that gives you something new to do in the generator, the editor or the print window — newest first.
-
Free edits before you print
After generating a worksheet you go straight to the editor. Until you print it, different numbers, a different story or a different task cost nothing — up to three edits for every task — and so do numbers you type in yourself. After the first print, changes cost as before; printing again and changing the layout stay free.
-
Choose how to pay: subscription or tokens
With an active subscription, the worksheet generator, the editor and the print window show “Pay with: subscription / tokens”, with what is left of your allowance and your token balance. Tokens keep the worksheet forever; the subscription keeps it editable while it lasts. The price on the button is binding: if it changes before you click, nothing is charged and you see the new price. In your account you set which option is selected to begin with.
-
Billing history: what every token was spent on
Your account now shows one billing history for tokens and your subscription allowance: the date, the worksheet title with a link, what was done (generated, new numbers, task replaced, group B when printing) and whether it was paid with tokens, from the subscription or free. Filter by tokens or subscription and download it as a CSV file, for example to settle with your school.
-
What's new: one page for every change
This page lists every change that gives you something new to do, newest first, with a link to try it. You can also follow it as an RSS feed; the link is in the footer of every page. Signed-in teachers see a “new” badge in the menu until they open it.
-
Drill sheets: facts only, ascending order and a strategy hint
A drill sheet can now practise one fact family only (for example dividing by 5), list the tasks in ascending order and print a short hint on how to calculate above the tasks. Drill sheets have their own tab in My worksheets.
-
Drill sheets: bare equations for quick practice
Besides worksheets with word problems you can generate a numbers-only drill sheet: up to 60 equations of one skill in a dense grid, with an answer key. It costs less than a worksheet with stories, and a few drill sheets a day are free.
-
Your school logo in the worksheet header
Upload your school logo once in your account and switch it on in the print window — it appears in the header of the student sheet.
-
Print profiles and your own default print settings
Save the print settings you use most as named profiles (for example “Quiz” or “Test in groups”) and pick one with a single click. The print window opens with your own default settings.
-
New print options: extra task, double-sided printing, your own footer
Add an extra task for fast finishers (outside the points total), print double-sided so every sheet starts on a new page, sign the sheet with your own footer line, add a grade or points box, shuffle the task order, and hide the title, section names or the site mark.
-
Tests in up to four groups (A–D)
A test or quiz can now be printed in two, three or four groups: the same layout, different numbers, and in groups B–D the answer options of multiple-choice tasks in a different order. One shared answer key with a column per group, or a separate key for each group.
-
Subscription next to tokens
Besides tokens that never expire you can now pay for a month or a year of a Standard or Plus subscription and generate within its allowance. The subscription is paid upfront and does not renew by itself.
-
Open data: five free datasets about school maths in 10 countries
We published the data behind the generator under an open licence: curricula mapped to skills, notation conventions, the prerequisite graph, units and money, and skill names in 7 languages — each with a DOI and a ready citation.
-
A ready-made test from a curriculum unit
Pick a unit of the curriculum and get a test that mixes several of its skills. The generator shows how many skills the unit has, and one click draws a different set of them.
-
New numbers: choose from suggestions or type your own
In the worksheet editor, “New numbers” now shows several sets proposed by the maths engine to choose from, and you can also type your own numbers — the engine checks them and solves the task again.
-
Faster generation: tasks first, PDF when you print
Generating a worksheet now gives you the list of tasks within seconds, with a progress bar, and the PDF is made only when you print — so you can edit before anything is printed.
-
Free sample worksheets under a Creative Commons licence
The sample worksheets in the gallery are licensed CC BY-NC-SA 4.0: you can print, share and adapt them for non-commercial teaching.
-
New kinds of drawings in tasks
Tasks can now come with coins and banknotes in your country's currency, growing patterns, dice and probability trees, double number lines, scales and measuring jugs, and pictograms with a legend.
-
US Letter paper and US print conventions
Worksheets for the United States print on US Letter paper, with a 12-hour clock and US conventions; any worksheet can be printed on A4 or Letter.
-
See the print layouts before you sign up
The home page and the sample gallery show how one worksheet looks with grid or lines, in two columns or bilingual, and what drawings the tasks can have.
-
You decide whether to print helper drawings
Helper drawings (for example fraction strips) can be switched on or off for the whole worksheet in the print window, or for a single task in the editor — free of charge.
