The MATH WORKSHEET GENERATOR has been written with the teacher in mind. As teachers in today's schools we now have more heterogeneous grouping with multiple levels of student ability. This places an extra burden on us, especially when it comes to prepararing materials for each of these levels. The MATH WORKSHEET GENERATOR has been designed to make these preparations easier. The MATH WORKSHEET GENERATOR will generate and print worksheets that are used to practice and reinforce basic arithmetical skills. From the Main Menu, you will have a choice of four types of numbers: 1. WHOLE NUMBERS 2. INTEGERS 3. DECIMALS 4. FRACTIONS For each of these choices, you have an option as to which operation you wish to practice: ___________________________________________________________________________ 1. ADDITION 2. SUBTRACTION 3. MULTIPLICATION 4. DIVISION ___________________________________________________________________________ Once you have made a choice of which operation will be practiced, you need to set the level of difficulty. This may be done selecting the digits in the first and second numbers according to the following chart: DIGITS ---------------------------------------------- BEGINNERS MEDIUM ADVANCED ---------------------------------------------- WHOLE NUMBERS OR INTEGERS First number 2 3 4 Second number 1 or 2 2 or 3 3 or 4 DECIMALS First number 2 3 4 Second number 1 or 2 2 or 3 3 or 4 Decimal places 1 2 3 FRACTIONS Denominator 15 25 50 Numerator 10 20 45 In version 2.2 we have incorporated a WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) window that shows a sample problem to be printed, and a counter showing the number of problems generated. - 3 - In this manner you may personalize your instruction by generating worksheets that are adapted to each student's mathematical maturity. You may generate anywhere from 3 to 99 exercises. I recommend shorter worksheets for beginning students (9 or 12 exercises) and longer ones (15 - ?) for middle level and advanced students. Each worksheet and its answer key is identified by a three-digit random number, this allows the separation of the answer key if need be. The MATH WORKSHEET GENERATOR uses a randomizing process to generate different exercises for each worksheet. This randomizing process depends on the computer's internal time clock. If your computer does not have a battery-operated internal clock, you will need to enter the time on your computer before each session with MATH WORKSHEET GENERATOR.
