What’s included

  • Open-ended: no right or wrong answers

Age and school year

Made for ages 4–7. That’s Pre-K – Grade 2 in the US, Reception – Year 3 in England, Nursery 1 – Primary 2 in Nigeria and LKG – Class 2 in India.

How to use it

  • Print it at home or school – it fits a standard A4 or US Letter page.
  • Write on it on a tablet or touchscreen with a finger or stylus – no printer needed.

Tips for parents and teachers

  1. Print a few copies at once so a fresh page is ready whenever inspiration strikes.
  2. Write on screen with a finger or stylus to save paper, and print only the finished version.
  3. Keep sessions to 5–10 minutes and finish with praise – young children learn best in short bursts.
