Every Primer lesson comes with a printable worksheet, and every worksheet is written for one student. It carries their name, follows the lesson they just finished, and works in the things they care about, the same way the lesson does.
Equivalent Fractions, for Maya, who loves her dog and cat 1 of 10
Screens are good for learning. Paper is good for practice. A worksheet slows a student down, asks them to write the answer out by hand, and gives you something to look over at the kitchen table.
When a lesson is generated, a worksheet is generated with it. Written from that lesson, for that student, so the vocabulary and the examples match what they just read. Each one opens with a greeting by name, then a worked example before the first question, so a student can start on their own without you sitting beside them.
The lesson themes itself around what your student loves. The worksheet does too. A student who is into dogs and cats gets fraction problems about a pan of dog treats and a shelf of cat toys. A student who likes robots gets a robot helper in the corner and a robot in half the sentences.
The last page of every worksheet is the answer key, with the reasoning written out, not just the answer. Check it yourself, or hand it to your student and let them check their own work. Whether students can see the key is a setting you control.
Every worksheet below came out of a real Primer lesson for a real student, answer key included, from first grade phonics to high school physics. Open any of them to see what your student's would look like.

Download PDFThese are samples. Your student's worksheets carry their own name, their own interests, and the content of the lesson they just finished.
Every worksheet is a PDF, so it works both ways. Print it and hand your student a pencil. Or open it in the Primer app on iPad and let them write on it with an Apple Pencil or their finger, no printer needed. Either way the work is done by hand, which is the point.
Worksheets are not limited to one per lesson. Email your student's Primer teacher at the address in your account and ask for what you need. A stack of practice for a long road trip. Three more sheets on multiplication because it is not quite sticking yet. A review of last month's science before moving on. The teacher writes them for your student, with their name and interests, and emails them back as PDFs.
The help article walks through the Unplugged step, the Make a Worksheet button, filling one out on iPad, and the two settings that control who can generate worksheets and see the answer key.
