How effective are math worksheets?
The effectiveness of math worksheets depends on a variety of factors, including the age of the student, the type of math being taught, and the student’s individual learning style. Generally speaking, math worksheets can be an effective tool for teaching basic math concepts and skills, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. They can also be used to reinforce previously learned concepts and skills, and to help students practice and review what they have learned.
The worksheets work by generating random numbers, so every time you open the document it will create a new set of problems and matching solution set!
To reset the random numbers hit F9 in Excel or in the Excel Viewer.
There are 2 worksheets in the Excel file. The first worksheet has the math problems. The second worksheet has the solutions to make it easy to quickly check results of the practice session.
If you want to print solutions along with the problems, then make sure to select “Entire workbook” in the “Print What” section of the print options.

Math worksheets are very effective in identifying areas of strength and weakness in a student’s math skills. Encourage younger students to answer the single digit problems as quickly as possible, whether they are right or wrong. You’ll be able to identify immediately which problems your student struggles with or confuses with the sum or difference of another familiar set of numbers. Review the wrong answers and refresh the sheet with a new set of problems to solve. Like using flashcards, this is one of the quickest ways to help a younger student and build confidence in knowing all of the right answers without counting on fingers or second-guessing themselves.
These practices will go a long way in helping your student or students succeed in building their math skills over time. Timing these worksheets is also an interactive and highly engaging exercise that can grow and maintain a student’s attention span by making math drills a challenge and more like a game than work.
