Learn more about abcteach membership!ABC Sorts An ABC Sort is a list of words that teachers can use when they are teaching students to alphabetize words. There are two basic styles of worksheet: students either number a list of words in alphabetical order, or they take words from a word bank and write them in alphabetical order. ABC Sort worksheets created with abctools can be made in both of these styles so that words are either split into groups of 3 to 5 words for sorting, or all of the words in the list are to be sorted. Here is a sample. Visit our alphabetical order directory to browse our selection of ready-made ABC Sorts, print free handwriting worksheets, and view samples of what members can do with our ABC Sort tool! Handwriting Worksheets A handwriting worksheet is a worksheet that helps students learn how to correctly form cursive and manuscript letters, words, and numbers. We offer two abctools to our members for making handwriting worksheets. The easiest way to create handwriting worksheets at abcteach is to add your own words to one of our pre-made handwriting worksheet templates. However, if none of our templates suit your needs, you can use our advanced handwriting abctool to create completely customized worksheets. Here is a sample. Visit our handwriting worksheets directory to browse our selection of ready-made handwriting worksheets, print free handwriting worksheets, and view samples of what members can do with our handwriting worksheet tools! Shapebooks A shapebook is a book that is in the shape of a particular object. The text of the book is printed inside of the shape. For example, you may have written something (a story, a poem, a series of facts...) about apples. When you create a shapebook your text is automatically formatted to fit inside of an outline in the shape of an apple (or whatever shape you choose). Cut out the outline and you have an apple-shaped book about apples! Here is a sample. Visit our shapebooks directory to browse our selection of ready-made shapebooks, print free shapebooks, and view samples of what members can do with our shapebook tool! Word Walls A word wall is a formatted list of words. Word walls can be printed in large letters, suitable for displaying on a wall for group instruction, or in smaller letters to create worksheets. Color may be used to highlight different letter combinations. Here is a sample. Visit our word wall directory to browse our selection of ready-made word walls, print free word walls, and view samples of what members can do with our word wall tool! Word Search Puzzles A word search puzzle is a group of words hidden in a grid of random letters. Words may be hidden within the puzzle in any direction. Easier puzzles have shorter words and smaller grids, and limit the directions of the hidden words to 'left to right' and 'down'. Harder puzzles include longer words, larger grids, and words hidden in any direction. Puzzles typically include a list of the hidden words below the puzzle, and a puzzle solution showing the circled words. Word search puzzles built with the abcteach word search tool may be generated in standard rectangular sizes, or in a number of other available pre-formatted shapes. There are three difficulty levels to choose from, and puzzles may be printed in a variety of fonts, font sizes, colors, and border options. Here is a sample. Visit our word search directory to browse our selection of ready-made word searches, print free word searches, and view samples of what members can do with our word search tool! Word Unscrambles A word unscramble is a list of words and phrases whose letters have been mixed up. Each scrambled word or phrase is followed by a space in which to write the unscrambled words. The list is numbered, so that the scrambled words and phrases may be easily matched to the unscrambled solutions, which are provided on the following page. Here is a sample. Visit our word unscramble directory to browse our selection of ready-made word unscrambles, print free word unscrambles, and view samples of what members can do with our word unscramble tool! Crossword Puzzles A crossword puzzle is a group of words that have been arranged horizontally and vertically so that each word crosses at least one other word at a common letter. The puzzle itself doesn't show the words, only the spaces where the words should be written. A list of numbered clues is matched to numbers placed in spaces on the puzzle where each word starts. Crossword puzzles built with the abcteach crossword tool may be generated in custom sizes. Puzzles may be printed in a variety of fonts, font sizes, colors, and border options. Here is a sample. Visit our crossword puzzle directory to browse our selection of ready-made crossword puzzles, print free crossword puzzles, and view samples of what members can do with our crossword puzzle tool! Math Worksheets A math worksheet is a set of related math problems. Solving the math problems may require simple arithmetic, algebraic, geometric, or statistical calculation, but one worksheet will typically present multiple variations of a single type of problem, so that students get practice with one particular mathematical operation or principle.The math worksheets at abcteach are organized into age-appropriate levels, covering topics from basic math concepts through geometry. A solution page is provided with every worksheet, no matter how simple or hard it is. Here is a sample. Visit our math directory to browse our selection of ready-made math worksheets, print free math worksheets, and view samples of what members can do with our math worksheet tool! Sudoku Sudoku is a logic puzzle. It is typically presented as a square grid with 9 squares to a side. Thick grid lines emphasize each block of 9 squares. The grid is partially filled with the numbers 1 through 9. To solve the puzzle, the empty squares should be filled in so that each row, column, and block contain each of the numbers 1 through 9. There is only one correct answer. Either 4 square or 9 square sudoku can be created using the abcteach sudoku tool. A setting is available for difficulty. This difficulty level controls how many squares are initially filled in on your sudoku. Our sudoku may be fully, partially, or not hinted. They are available with both number and dot hinting, and the hinting style and percent may be changed without changing the puzzle. Every puzzle includes an answer page. Here is a sample. Visit our sudoku directory to browse our selection of ready-made sudoku, print free sudoku, and view samples of what members can do with our sudoku tool! Word Shape Worksheets A word shape worksheet is useful for teaching students how to form letters correctly, how to place letters in a word properly relative to each other and to the baseline, and for spelling practice. For students who are just beginning to learn to write, simple worksheets present a word that can be copied directly into an adjacent word shape. A more advanced 'Word Shape Puzzle' requires students to match a scrambled list of words to their shapes. Both types of worksheet can be created using the word shape abctool. Word shape worksheets built with the abcteach word shape tool may be created in both the simple list format for spelling and writing practice, and in the puzzle format for word shape recognition. Here is a sample. Visit our word shape directory to browse our selection of ready-made word shapes, print free word shapes, and view samples of what members can do with our word shape tool! Spelling List Worksheets A spelling list is a list of words presented to students for spelling practice and study. Each word is followed by a space in which to practice writing the word. The list is numbered, so that students may be tested on their spelling proficiency after a period of study. Spelling list worksheets frequently include a word bank listing the words for study, and a test page that includes the numbers and writing spaces, but not the words themselves. Spelling list worksheets built with the abcteach spelling list tool may be created with or without word banks or test pages. Here is a sample. Visit our spelling directory to browse our selection of ready-made spelling lists, print free spelling lists, and view samples of what members can do with our spelling list tool! Circle & Spell Worksheets A circle & spell worksheet is a list of words presented to students to help them identify correctly spelled words. Each word is accompanied by likely misspellings of that word. Students are to identify and circle the correctly spelled word. There may optionally be a word bank listing the words for study. Spelling list worksheets built with the abcteach spelling list tool may include from one to three misspellings for each word, and the display style of the words on the worksheet can be customized. Here is a sample. Visit our Circle & Spell directory to browse our selection of ready-made circle & spell worksheets, print free circle & spell worksheets, and view samples of what members can do with our circle & spell tool! Desk Tags  Desk tags are placards with a word or words on them that can be fixed to students' desks. Usually, desk tags display a student's name, indicating that the desk is theirs. Desk tags are frequently printed with primary or elementary lines, and sometimes in cursive, so they also provide a constant reminder to students of how to properly print or write their names. The abcteach desk tag tool allows you to create single-sided or double-sided desk tags with various line styles. Decorative images may be added to the tags, and prompts, text, and borders may be printed in various colors and styles. Here is a sample. Visit our Desk Tags directory to browse our selection of ready-made desk tags , print free desk tags , and view samples of what members can do with our desk tag tool! Bingo Games A bingo game is a set of cards, each of which is filled with numbers, words, or symbols arranged in a square grid. As a game leader, or "caller", calls out those numbers, words or symbols, players mark, or "black out", matching numbers, words, or symbols on their card until their card is completely blacked out. Bingo can be a useful teaching tool for many different kinds of concepts, including basic shape or number recognition, mathematical operations, and word recognition. The abcteach bingo tool creates bingo games with a title page, bingo cards, and a call list. The title page includes headings, a title, and instructions. Bingo cards follow the title page. There may be anywhere between 3 and 50 bingo cards, depending on how many players you are creating the game for. After the bingo cards is the "call list", which is used by the caller to run the game. Here is a sample. Visit our bingo directory to browse our selection of ready-made bingo games, print free games, and view samples of what members can do with our bingo tool!
