Super Teacher Worksheets (review of a fantastic resource!)


We tend towards more organic learning in my household in the early years particularly, but every once in a while I appreciate having the ability to find some worksheets/printable pages to add to studies, and to have something physical to submit for our portfolio at the end of the year. This is where the Individual Membership from Super Teacher Worksheets can come into play.


Here are the basic categories available:

  • Pre-K and Kindergarten worksheets
  • Phonics and Early Literacy
  • Reading and Writing
  • Handwriting (cursive and manuscript)
  • Grammar
  • Spelling
  • Chapter book Units
  • Math
  • Science Worksheets
  • Social Studies Worksheets
  • Holiday oriented worksheets
  • Puzzles and Brain Teasers
  • Teaching Tools 
  • Worksheet Generators
Within each category there are M-A-N-Y subcategories and options, too numerous to list here. :) You can visit the site to see those, as well as download some free pages, which will help you to get a feel for everything that is available to members.


My youngest is on the upper end of the age range, as these pages are geared towards grades Pre-K- 5 (with some up to grade 6), but I found a wide variety of pages that were suitable for our use.

For instance, we were working on a literature unit that was talking about a variety of living creatures. I checked Super Teacher Worksheets, and was amazed to discover that they had an article on WORMS (one of the creatures we discussed). I had my son read the article, and then printed up the comprehension worksheet and a scrambled words worksheet based on that article.



Another day we talked about butterflies and moths, 
and found an article and worksheet for that as well!


Fish? Yes, sir! Although this time the "worksheets" were more puzzle oriented (from the Puzzles and Brain Teasers Category), I discovered the Cipher Wheel and Secret Code Facts page, which included a set of "Secret Code Facts" for fish. I printed up and put together the cipher wheel for my son, and printed up the secret code pages, assigning him specific codes to crack (not every one, in order).



This was a fun way to learn a little bit more about fish!

I think at the moment the Puzzles and Brain Teasers Category is my favorite section for my son's age. ;)
I discovered a animal classification cootie catcher that I printed up for our use... one of many printable cootie catchers... does that bring you back? ;)


Some of the worksheets are more typical (as seen above with the worms and butterflies and moths graphics), but even math practice can be a little more fun. While we already do a variety of multiplication warm-ups (and you can find many options for practicing multiplication table on the Super Teach Worksheets website, including but not limited to flash cards, regular worksheets, timed quizzes, drills, charts, and more), there are also some options that include cootie catchers (Really? How fun is that! :) , multiplication riddles, printable games, and more. So many options! Here's one I chose to use... a hidden picture coloring page for one of the days when he just needed a little down time.


There are sooooo many worksheets and fun options 
~ I am impressed with this website membership! ~

If you don't have a spelling program, you can find that. 
Need graphic organizers for writing exercises? They have those. 
I already mentioned the many math options. 
Homophones, Homographs, Double Negatives (in ELA)... 
Almost any subject you want to cover/reinforce can be found.

If you have an early learner, there are oodles of pages from cutting skills to ABC's (not just regular recognition pages, but letter order pages and more...) to Phonics Word Wheels, Mini Phonics Books, Cut and Paste activities (think- sentence order), Skip Counting, Right and left worksheets, and so much more!
(Did I mention they have many worksheets translated into Spanish, and also many for our neighbors to the north with Canadian-English spellings.)


Really, if this is anything you are remotely interested in, you ought to consider visiting their website~ it really is SUPER (and I don't often enthuse over worksheets....)

Not So Nutty Nitty Gritty
