Learning and recalling new words in another language, with meaning and spelling.

Age and school year

Made for ages 4–18.

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. Say new words out loud and use each one in a sentence – hearing and using words is how they stick.
  2. Sort answers into “know it” and “still learning”, and revisit only the second pile next time.
  3. Ask your child to teach you one thing from the sheet; explaining is a great test of understanding.
