Free CEFR A1 Matching Worksheet — printable
Prints two columns with the meanings shuffled, so students draw lines instead of recalling cold. Good as a warm-up or for a mixed-ability group. Words come from the CEFR vocabulary list for this level. Glosses are in Chinese and Japanese rather than English, which suits classes taught to Chinese- or Japanese-speaking learners.
Drawn from 1,060 CEFR A1 words. No account, no email — set the number of questions, regenerate for a different set, then print.

Using this in class
Two columns with the meanings shuffled. Lower difficulty than either quiz because the answer is on the page, which makes it a good warm-up or a fair task for a mixed-ability class.
Print uses your browser's print dialog, so "Save as PDF" is available wherever your system offers it. The answer key starts on its own page, so you can print page 1 for students and keep page 2. Need the whole level instead of a sample? Download all 1,060 words as an Anki-ready file.

Beyond the word list
A worksheet checks whether a word was memorised. InputDojo's classroom side assigns real reading — an article or video — and shows you who actually did it, which words they saved, and where the class is weakest, so the next worksheet targets something specific. See the teacher tools.
