Age and school year

Made for ages 9–18.

How to use it

  • Print it at home or school – it fits a standard A4 or US Letter page.

  • Play it on screen: answers are marked instantly and children earn stars.
  • Write on it on a tablet or touchscreen with a finger or stylus – no printer needed.

Tips for parents and teachers

  1. Little and often wins: five minutes a day beats one long session a week.
  2. Sort answers into “know it” and “still learning”, and revisit only the second pile next time.
  3. Treat mistakes as information: note what went wrong next to each incorrect answer.
