The shuffle is never accidental
Items are shuffled so that no word ever sits directly opposite its own match. Without that guarantee a random shuffle regularly gives away two or three answers for free.

How to get the most from these worksheets
A few things worth knowing before you print a stack of them.
Use your own pairs for revision
This type is the fastest way to build a revision sheet for anything paired: capitals and countries, terms and definitions, characters and books. Type one pair per line separated by an equals sign.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use my own matching pairs?
Yes. Choose “My own pairs” and enter one pair per line, separated by =, like: big = small
Does the answer key show the lines?
Yes — the key draws each correct joining line, so it can be marked at a glance.
Can children write letters instead of drawing lines?
Yes. Set the answer style to “Write the matching letter”, which is easier to mark for larger classes.
