Hanzi Sheets
Weekend Chinese School Worksheets & Homework Help
Saturday-morning Chinese school runs on a weekly rhythm: new word list, homework, dictation. Turn each week's list into practice sheets the night the homework comes home.
Loaded with typical school-week vocabulary. Paste your child's actual 生字词 list instead.

Built around the heritage-school week
The rhythm is the same everywhere: the teacher assigns a text and a 生字词 list on Saturday, written homework is due mid-week, and dictation (听写) lands the following Saturday. The bottleneck is that practice materials never match the actual list. Hanzi Sheets closes that gap: copy the words from the textbook or the class WeChat message, paste them in, and the sheet prints with pinyin, English meanings (a lifeline for the parent whose Chinese is rustier than the child's), tracing grids and a stroke-order strip per character. Words stay whole — 作业 stays 作业, never two orphan characters — because that is how they are tested.
Rehearse 听写 before the teacher does
The dictation-quiz template exists for Thursday night: it prints the pinyin and meaning of each word beside empty grids, with an answer key at the bottom. Your child writes from the prompt, self-checks against the key, and you learn on Thursday what's shaky instead of on Saturday after the test. Characters that keep going wrong get tapped into the mistake book in the preview, and the end-of-month review sheet is one click from there. The dictation page details the format.
Whichever script your school uses
Schools teaching with 马立平, 暨南 or 美洲华语 materials, Taiwan-style 繁體 schools, Cantonese community schools — paste the list as it appears and flip the 简体 / 繁體 toggle if needed. Traditional mode switches to traditional stroke data, a traditional ink font and zhuyin labels. Families juggling school plus home will recognize the overlap with the homeschool workflow and the Singapore Primary 1 routine.
FAQ
Can I paste the exact word list from our textbook?
Yes — that is the intended use. Copy the week's 生字词 from the textbook or class group chat; words stay whole and pinyin + English meanings fill in automatically.
Does it work for Traditional-script schools?
Yes. Toggle 繁體 and the same list prints in traditional characters with zhuyin labels and traditional stroke order — used by many Taiwan-style and Cantonese community schools.
How do I rehearse 听写 at home?
Switch the template to Dictation quiz: the sheet prints pinyin + meaning as prompts with empty grids and an optional answer key, so your child writes from memory and self-checks.
Is it free for weekly use?
3 sheets per day free (a tracing sheet plus a quiz in one day is covered), up to 30 characters each, no sign-up.
