English worksheets for bilingual classrooms
English is Language A on almost every LingoSheets sheet — the instruction language that sits beside Spanish, Chinese or French.
Use English as the anchor language for vocabulary, then let children meet the same ten words in their home or target language. The picture stays the same, so the meaning never needs a translation app.
Teaching notes
- Print the English word bank first and ask children to predict the translation.
- Use the English-only flashcard face for quick reading checks.
- Pair English with the home language on the same card to build metalinguistic awareness.

Frequently asked
Do I need to speak both languages?
No. The cards are designed so a monolingual teacher or parent can run the activity: the picture carries the meaning, and both words are printed.
Is the English vocabulary reviewed?
Word lists are curated by our team and checked for common classroom usage. If you spot a regional variant you would like added, email us — we update the open data set monthly.
Can I use these with older students?
Yes. The same themes work for newcomers in secondary school; increase the grid size and use the word–word matching sheet for a quick diagnostic.
