What is a worksheet?




A worksheet is a piece of paper, often pre-printed in a way designed to help organize material for learning or clear understanding.
It`s a very good resource for teachers because they help a lot within the teaching-learning process. Students in a school may have "fill-in-the-blank" sheets of questions, diagrams or maps to help them with their exercisesBut a worksheet can be something more! You can create and use very good materials and make your students enjoy their work.
