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 1,783 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.
