Paste any passage, click the words you want blanked, and print a clean cloze worksheet with a word bank and a separate answer key. Built for teachers, free forever.
The cloze passage is one of the oldest tricks in teaching because it works: remove the right words from a text and filling them back in requires actually understanding the sentence, not just recognizing it. Making one by hand, though, means fighting a word processor's underscores, assembling a word bank, and retyping everything into an answer key. This tool does the busywork.
Paste the passage from anywhere: the textbook chapter, your own summary, a news article, song lyrics for language class. Every word becomes clickable. Click the vocabulary you are targeting, and the worksheet, word bank, and answer key assemble themselves for printing.
Cloze worksheets are usually built from copyrighted textbook passages, which classroom fair use generally covers. What fair use does not contemplate is pasting that passage into a random website's server, where it may be logged, retained, or used to train something. This tool has no server side: the passage stays in your browser, full stop. Paste freely.
Paste the passage, then click any word to turn it into a numbered blank; click again to restore it. When the selection looks right, print. The worksheet comes out with a name and date line, an alphabetized word bank, and an answer key on its own page.
A cloze passage is a text with selected words removed, which students restore from context. It tests reading comprehension, vocabulary, and grammar at the same time, since choosing the right word means understanding the sentence around it. This tool builds them from any passage you choose.
The passage never leaves your device: this tool runs entirely in your browser, so pasting copyrighted material for classroom use is between you, your school, and fair-use rules, not a third-party server quietly retaining the text. Nothing you paste is uploaded, logged, or seen by us.
Yes. Suggest blanks picks roughly every seventh meaningful word, skipping short function words like the, and, and of, which is the classic cloze construction. Use it as a starting point and click to fine-tune, since you know which vocabulary the lesson targets.
Yes, on a separate page so it never prints on the student sheet by accident. The key lists each numbered blank with its answer. You can turn the key page or the word bank off with one checkbox each.
