Worksheets and printing

1. Open any lesson.
2. Scroll to the bottom and tap Practice sheets.
3. You will see up to five sheets for that lesson.

This is the part worth knowing. The five sheets are not the same questions with the numbers swapped. Each one asks your child to think a different way, and the sheet titles say which:

1. Work them out — plain calculation. The straightforward one.
2. Find the missing number — working backwards. A child who has only memorized the forward fact stalls here, which is exactly what you want to find out.
3. Read it and work it out — word problems, where deciding which sum to do is the actual work.

So working through all five is genuinely more practice, rather than the same practice five times over. A child who breezed through sheet 1 may well struggle with sheet 2, and that gap is the useful information.

1. Tap Print sheet 1 — or 2, 3, 4 or 5. It opens laid out for paper, with lines for your child’s name and the date.
2. Print it the way you print anything else. On a phone, use the share or menu button and choose Print. On a computer, hold Ctrl and press P — on a Mac, Cmd and P.
3. Choose your printer and print. The sheets are made for ordinary A4 or Letter paper.

Beside every Print sheet button is an Answer key button. It is the same questions with the answers filled in, on its own page — so you can print your child’s sheet without the answers on it, and keep the key yourself.
