How to create worksheets

Step-by-step guide to generating custom, differentiated, print-ready worksheets using Monsha’s AI worksheet generator.

Written by Piash

Monsha's Worksheet Generator lets you quickly create customised, differentiated worksheets aligned with your teaching objectives. You can generate worksheets from a mix of sources — videos, articles, files, or your existing Monsha resources — and shape them to fit different student needs.

Step 1: Log into Monsha

  • Sign up or log in with your email. It takes only a few clicks.

Step 2: Choose your worksheet type

After logging in, you'll see two worksheet options in the tools directory:

  • Smart Worksheet — Ideal for quick worksheet creation. Monsha automatically selects suitable activity types based on your sources.

  • Worksheet — Choose this if you'd rather pick and arrange the activity types yourself.

Step 3: Add your requirements and sources

Now it's time to set up your worksheet.

1. Type your prompt, topic, or instructions into the Describe your requirement box at the top. Keep it simple and context-driven — Monsha will fill in the gaps.

Need to reuse something you've written before? Click History under the textarea to pull up your Prompt History and reuse any past prompt with one click.

2. Click Attach to add as many sources as you need. The Attach dropdown sits under the textarea and gives you five source types:

  • Video — drop in a YouTube link and Monsha will use the transcript to build activities.

  • File — upload docs, slides, spreadsheets, or images.

  • Website — link to articles, PDFs, blog posts, textbooks, or any URL.

  • Text — paste any text excerpt directly.

  • Monsha Resource — reuse a lesson plan, presentation, or any other resource you've already made.

You can combine multiple sources for richer, more relevant assessments.

3. For regular Worksheets, pick your activity types. Open the Activity types dropdown and check off the ones you want to include:

  • Matching Questions

  • Fill-in-the-Gaps

  • MCQ (Multiple Choice Questions)

  • Label the Picture or Diagram (Beta)

  • True/False

  • Compare and Contrast

  • Open-Ended Questions

  • Critical Thinking Questions

  • Problem Solving or Exercises

  • Writing Prompts

  • Sequencing Events

  • + Other — type your own activity type if none of the presets fit.

Smart Worksheets skip this step — Monsha picks the activity mix for you. You'll see a preset How many activities? dropdown (5, 10, 15, or 20) and a Difficulty levels (optional) field instead.

4. Set how many activities and your difficulty mix. For regular Worksheets, type a number in How many activities? (up to 20). To set a difficulty mix, click Configure Resource — the Worksheet Configuration modal opens with two fields: Total Activities and Difficulty levels (optional) — a multi-select that lets you combine Very Easy, Easy, Moderate, Difficult, and Very Difficult. Useful when you want a worksheet that ramps up, or one tier of difficulty per group.

5. Choose your grade level and language. The Grade picker is multi-tiered. Pick your education system first — United States / Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, India / South Asia, IB, Cambridge, Age-Based, or University / Tertiary — then drill into the sub-level (e.g., Middle School → Grade 8). Language supports 60+ options.

Step 4: Align and fine-tune (optional)

Click More Options to fit the worksheet into your curriculum:

  • Attach to course — organise this worksheet under a specific course, unit, or lesson.

  • Assign standards — pick from built-in standards (Common Core, NGSS, IB, and more) or add your own.

  • Adapt to framework — fine-tune your questions using Depth of Knowledge (DOK) Levels, Lexile Reading Levels, or Bloom's Taxonomy.

This step is optional — you can skip it and add alignment later.

When you're ready, click Generate. Flip on the Web search toggle to the right of Generate if you want Monsha to pull in live web sources while it builds the worksheet.


What can you do after generating your worksheet?

1. Chat with your content

The chat bar at the bottom of the resource page keeps the conversation going. Ask Monsha to rewrite questions, generate follow-ups, swap in a different activity type, or adapt the worksheet for a different group — all in one thread.

Click Quick prompts (bottom-left of the chat bar) for tailored suggestions: Make it engaging, Create another variation, Focus more on, Add more, Reduce, Difficulty, Add visuals, Change tone. The chevron items open submenus so you can be more specific (e.g., Add more → Activity types).

Toggle the globe icon (right side of the chat bar) to let Monsha search the web before answering your next message.

2. Edit and enhance

Click Edit at the top of the content card to open the rich-text editor. The + Insert menu lets you add headings, tables, code, quotes, dividers, bulleted/numbered/to-do/toggle lists, images, a table of contents, and equations. The toolbar covers bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, alignment, links, and indent/outdent. Click Save when you're done, or Cancel to back out.

3. Differentiate

Click More at the top of the content card and choose Differentiate to open the Differentiate Resource modal. Five options:

  • Translate — convert the worksheet into any of the 60+ supported languages.

  • Adjust Grade Level — re-level the same content for a different grade.

  • Adjust DOK Level — shift the cognitive demand.

  • Adjust Lexile Reading Level — recalibrate reading difficulty.

  • Adapt to Bloom's Taxonomy — re-aim the questions at a specific Bloom's level.

4. Export

Click Export to open the Export Resource picker. Depending on the worksheet's nature, you can export to:

  • Documents — Google Docs, DOCX, PDF

  • Quiz / form platforms — Google Forms, Kahoot, Quizizz, Quizlet, Blooket, Gimkit, Socrative

  • LMS — Google Classroom, Canvas, Schoology

5. Share with colleagues or students

Click Share at the top of the resource page to open the Share Resource modal. Copy the Shareable Link to send the worksheet to anyone, flip on Allow this resource to be publicly indexed and discoverable if you want it to appear in Monsha's public library, or enter email addresses and a short message to share it directly.

6. See the original prompt or create a follow-up resource

Click More at the top of the resource page (next to Share) for two extras:

  • See Prompt — opens the original prompt you used to create this worksheet.

  • Create based on this — start a new resource using this worksheet as the source.

Your worksheets remain securely stored in your Monsha account, ready to use and update whenever you need.
