How to AI-Generate Worksheets with Monsha
Follow these steps:
-
Head over to Monsha and sign up or log in—it takes just two clicks!
-
Once you’re in, you’ll see a list of resource options. Pick Worksheets if you want to specify the types of activities you want in your worksheet. But if you’re after something quick and fresh, Smart Worksheets will do the trick by generating activities without much input from you.
-
Regardless of what you choose, you’ll be taken to the worksheet creation page. Here, you can assign your worksheet to a course, unit, and lesson. This step is optional, but we recommend doing it to keep your resources organized and make the most of Monsha’s ability to plan your entire course or subject into units and lessons. But feel free to skip it now—you can always attach or detach your resources from a course later.
-
Next, choose what you want your worksheet to be based on. This is where Monsha gets even more powerful. You can input your reference or source materials and specify what you want your worksheet to align with. You have the following options, and you can use more than one sources to make your worksheet more specific, relevant, and precise!
- Topic of your choice: Just type in the topics, themes, questions, lesson, chapter, or standard are you creating worksheet for.
- A Monsha resource: The magic here is, you can create new resources in Monsha based on the ones you’ve already made. For example, if you’ve previously created a lesson plan or presentation, select it here to base your worksheet on.
- A link from internet: Paste the URL of the page you want to base your worksheet on—article, website, pdf, research paper, textbook, anything.
- A YouTube video: Paste the URL of the YouTube video you’d like to use for your worksheet. Instead of just grabbing the title or description, we analyze the entire video transcript to generate more accurate, detailed content.
- A file upload: Upload any educational material you have stored on your device—whether it’s a document, PowerPoint, Excel sheet, or even an image file.
- Any text or excerpt: You can also paste text here directly, either instead of or in addition to using links and files.
- Curriculum expectations: You can choose from our pre-filled set of standards (e.g., NGSS, CCSS), or manually enter your curriculum expectations to align the worksheet accordingly.
- Lesson objectives: If you assigned a lesson to this worksheet in the previous step, you can align it with the objectives of that lesson. Each lesson comes with auto-generated learning goals, which you can adjust as needed for any resource under it.
Just select and insert as many sources as you need and click ‘Next’.
-
If you didn’t assign a course in the earlier step, you’ll need to select the grade level and language in this step.
-
Finally, if you chose Worksheet instead of Smart Worksheet, you’ll need to pick the activity types you want to include. Choose only the ones you need and arrange them in your desired order. Currently, the available options are:
📝 Diagram Labelling
📝 Matching Questions
📝 Fill-in-the-Gaps
📝 MCQ (Multiple Choice Questions)
📝 True/False
📝 Compare and Contrast
📝 Open-Ended Questions
📝 Critical Thinking
📝 Practice Problems or Exercises
📝 Writing Prompts
📝 Sequencing Events
-
Feel free to include any additional instructions you might have. This can be helpful if you have special requirements not covered in the earlier steps. For example, you might want to focus on a specific area of the source materials, include certain question types, or specify the number of questions, etc.
-
Optionally, you can assign a DOK level, Bloom’s Taxonomy level, or Lexile reading level to adapt your worksheet.
-
Click Generate, and your worksheet will be ready in seconds!
Easy, right? But that’s not it. Read on…

AI-Generate Worksheets with ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, or Other Chatbots
Chatbots thrive on prompts. Tools like Monsha give you the specificity and ease that chatbots can’t always match. But when you find yourself limited by specialized AI tools, general-purpose AI like ChatGPT can still be a useful fallback.
We have dedicated articles on AI prompts for worksheets, but here’s something to get you started.
Use this prompt:
Create a printable worksheet for [Grade Level] on [Topic/Subject]. Ensure it’s
well-organized, engaging, and suitable for classroom use. Worksheet Components:
Title & Objectives: Include a clear title and list 2-3 learning objectives.
Sections: Intro: Brief topic overview (1-2 sentences). Core Questions: Include:
MCQs (3-5 questions, 4 options each), Fill-in-the-Blanks (2-3 sentences),
Open-Ended Questions (1-2 prompts), Matching/Labeling: Diagram or terms to
label/match. Diagram: Insert a relevant diagram for labeling or note-taking, if
applicable. Challenge: End with one advanced question to deepen understanding.
Teacher Instructions: Add a brief note on usage.
If you’d like to use source materials, you can add links or attach a file and prompt it to follow along:
Use the attached file and/or following URL as a source and reference of the
worksheet: [insert_URL]
Keep in mind that different AI chatbots have varying limits and capacities for reading external URLs and files, and there’s always some kind of text limit in place. A good workaround is to summarize your source material using one of the tactics outlined here, then ask ChatGPT to work with that summary.
Use the following text-excerpt as a source and reference of the worksheet:
Source: [insert_text_excerpt]
As biased as we may be, we suggest giving both a shot. Even if you end up using Monsha for its power, ease, and flexibility, it’s worth trying out the prompts too. With AI booming, prompting will soon be a basic life skill, just like using a computer.
As for Monsha, we designed it to give teachers an easy, iterative, and super-quick way to create just-right resources. Give it a go!
