Fill in the Blank Generator

ESL fill in the blank generator: a worksheet generator for gap fill and cloze test sheets with an answer key, from any text or photo

Fill in the Blank Generator is a worksheet generator for teachers in a side panel: it turns any text into a gap fill worksheet with a separate answer key. Highlight a paragraph on a web page, snap a textbook page, or let AI write a text for your lesson. Made for ESL and EFL teachers, tutors and anyone who makes worksheets, quizzes and tests. ✏️ How to create a fill in the blank worksheet 1. Click the Fill in the Blank Generator icon: the side panel opens next to the page. 2. Get a text: highlight it on the page, add a photo, or let AI write it. 3. Click a word to turn it into a gap, or select a phrase. 4. Choose an exercise type and the look of the sheet. 5. Download the PDF: student sheets and answer key in one click. 📥 Three ways to get a fill in the blanks text 1️⃣ Marker: highlight text on almost any web page, or take the main text of the whole page in one click. Where Chrome does not allow extensions (the Chrome Web Store, some PDF viewers), copy the text and paste it into the panel. The Find an article button opens News in Levels, VOA Learning English or Simple English Wikipedia. 2️⃣ Photo: upload a photo or screenshot of a textbook page, or snap it with your phone via a QR code. The generator reads it with AI; check the result, as a photo can bring small mistakes. 3️⃣ Generate: AI writes a new passage for your lesson and hides the grammar point or the vocabulary you gave. ✍️ Worksheets for any grammar point Generate turns the fill in the blank generator into an ai worksheet generator. Pick what to practise from about 160 suggestions (grammar, topics, functions) and get a present perfect worksheet, a tenses worksheet or vocabulary practice worksheets on a topic your class likes. Type your own words, and each one becomes a gap. Set the level (A1–C1), age group (6–8 to adults), kind of text (story, dialogue, email, article, essay and more), topic and length. 🧩 Seven exercise types from one passage The fill in the blank generator offers seven exercise types for the same passage: ➤ Words from a box: in order, mixed or with extra words ➤ In brackets, with the base form given: (go) → went ➤ First letters given: b___ ➤ Empty gaps: your own picks for an open cloze, or every 7th word for a classic cloze test or cloze passage ➤ Choose the right word from three options ➤ Base forms in a box ➤ Word formation: the root in capitals, as in word formation exercises 📝 From sentences to notes Make fill in the blank sentences for a quick check, paragraph fill in the blanks for a whole text, or fill in the blank notes: guided notes that students complete while they read or listen. Cloze reading works the same way in the generator: highlight a passage, click what to hide, print. 🎯 Three levels for one class The fill in the blank worksheet maker gives three levels of one passage, each with its own exercise type: ▸ ★ for one group, for example a word box ▸ ★★ for another, for example the same box with extra words ▸ ★★★ for stronger students, for example first letters Each sheet gets a shape, ○, □ or △, shuffled, so students cannot tell which sheet is easier. 🔑 Answer key, kept apart • The whole text with the answers in place • Or a numbered list of answers • PDF, Copy and Google Docs: the key comes as its own PDF file, never inside the student sheet • Word and Print: the key is on a separate last page, easy to remove A worksheet with answer key every time: print a fill in the blank test or exam and keep the key. 🎨 The look of the sheet - Standard, Large with a school font for young learners, or Compact - Font, size and line spacing - A Name / Class / Date line - A worked example (0) - A4 or US Letter No fill in the blank template needed: the generator lays out the sheet. 📤 Print and export 📄 PDF: student sheets plus a separate key PDF in one click 🖨️ Print 📝 Microsoft Word: an editable .docx 📋 Copy: paste a fill in the blanks worksheet into Google Docs or a document 📁 Google Docs: the generator opens a new Doc, you paste the sheet with Ctrl+V; the key downloads as a PDF A worksheet creator that ends on paper: fill in the blank worksheets for class and homework, or a fill in the blank quiz. 🔒 Privacy The fill in the blank generator works only on the tab where you click the icon, with no permission to read all sites; Find an article asks once for access to its three learning sites. Highlighted text stays in your browser, except the sentences of the gaps in the Choice and Word formation exercises: they go to the extension server and the AI provider to find options and roots. Photos and AI requests go to the extension server and the AI provider (Anthropic) only to be processed; the extension server does not keep photos or texts. The text read from a phone snapshot waits up to 10 minutes for the panel and is deleted when picked up. A random install number is used for a daily fair-use limit. 🎓 Who it is for ▸ ESL and EFL teachers who run gap fill activities and make esl worksheets ▸ Tutors who need a quick fill in the gaps task for the next lesson ▸ Teachers of any subject who give out guided notes ▸ Anyone who needs a fill in the blank maker or a fill in the blank worksheet generator for class, homework and tests ❓ FAQ 🧐 Does Fill in the Blank Generator need an account? 💡 No. There is no sign-up: click the icon and start. 🧐 Can I edit the sheet after export? 💡 Yes.
