How to print a worksheet
Every worksheet on this site is made on your screen and printed from your own browser. Nothing is downloaded and there is nothing to install. Here is how to get a clean page from a computer or a phone.
From a computer
- Open a worksheet and choose the settings. Press New sheet until you like the questions.
- Press Print on the page (or Ctrl + P on Windows, Cmd + P on a Mac).
- In the print window choose your printer, paper size A4 and Portrait.
- Open "More settings". Keep Scale at 100 (or "Default") and turn Headers and footers off for a cleaner page.
- Press Print. The answers come out on a separate page after the worksheet.
From a phone
- Open the worksheet in Chrome (Android) or Safari (iPhone).
- Press Print on the page. If nothing opens, use the browser menu: on Android, the three dots, then Share, then Print; on iPhone, the Share button, then Print.
- Choose a Wi-Fi printer, or choose Save as PDF and send the PDF to a print shop on WhatsApp.
Save as PDF
You do not need a printer at home. In the print window, pick Save as PDF (computer) or Save as PDF in the printer list (Android). On iPhone, pinch outwards on the preview picture in the print screen and then share the PDF. A PDF can be kept, sent to a teacher or a class group, or printed at any shop.
Do not want the answers?
Untick Print the answer page before printing. Or, in the print window, set Pages to 1 only.
Get the same sheet again
Every sheet carries a sheet number at the bottom. Press Copy link to copy an address that opens exactly that sheet: the same settings and the same questions. Teachers can send this link to parents so that everyone prints the same page, and keep the answer page for themselves.
Save paper and ink
- Print on both sides: worksheet on the front, a second worksheet on the back.
- Choose "Black and white" or "Draft" quality. Worksheets have no colour or pictures that need it.
- For daily practice, put a printed sheet in a clear plastic folder and let the child write on the folder with a whiteboard marker. Wipe and use again.
- Choose fewer questions and print two sheets on one page (in the print window: Pages per sheet = 2) for older children.
If something looks wrong
- The page is cut off on the right: the scale is above 100, or the paper is set to A5 or Letter. Choose A4 and scale 100.
- The menu and buttons print too: use the Print button on the worksheet page and wait a second for the preview.
- Tracing letters look different on paper: the lettering had not finished loading. Close the print window, wait two seconds and print again.
