Microsoft Word template
The table already contains 20 numbered spaces. Its only columns are Question number, Question and Answer. The first four rows contain genuine editable Word equations as examples, and the remaining rows are ready to complete.
Supported Word mathematics
- Editable Office Math equations
- Mixed words and equations
- Fractions, powers and subscripts
- Roots, functions, calculus and limits
- Growing brackets, vectors, sets and matrices

Generate a completed Word template
You are creating an import-ready classroom loop-card activity for the Loop Card Generator. Use the official Microsoft Word template attached to this chat and return a completed copy of that same .docx file. Preserve its layout and styles. Do not redesign the document, add columns or add a card-letter column.
EDIT THESE SETTINGS BEFORE YOU BEGIN
SUBJECT: [enter the subject]
TOPIC OR AREA: [enter one or more topics]
SKILL(S) TO ASSESS: [enter one or more precise skills]
LEARNER LEVEL: [enter year group, grade or age range]
NUMBER OF CARDS: [enter a number from 2 to 20]
OPTIONAL REQUIREMENTS: [enter any required contexts, representations, vocabulary, question types or difficulty balance, or leave blank]
HOW THE ACTIVITY WORKS
Each row contains one question and its answer. When the activity is printed, the answer is placed at the top of a different card. Pupils answer one card, find that answer on another card and continue around one closed loop. Every displayed answer must therefore be unique, concise and unambiguous.
DIVERSITY PLANNING
Before editing the file, silently plan the complete set.
1. Translate the requested topic and skills into genuinely different question families. A question family must differ in structure, representation, context, direction of thinking, method or reasoning demand. Changing only numbers, names or surface wording does not create a new family.
2. For 2 to 5 cards, use at least 2 suitable families. For 6 to 11 cards, use at least 3. For 12 or more cards, use 4 to 6 where the skill allows.
3. Distribute the cards across the chosen families as evenly as possible. Do not let one family dominate unless the settings explicitly require it.
4. Interleave the families and difficulty levels. Do not place all questions of one form together.
5. Do not use the same underlying question template more than twice. If two questions share a template, change more than their values.
6. If several topics or skills are supplied, give each suitable coverage and keep the requested balance clear. Do not combine unrelated skills inside one question unless requested.
7. Stay within the stated topic, skills and learner level. Use the greatest genuine variety the skill supports without drifting into unrequested content.
Choose subject-appropriate forms of variety. Where suitable, vary:
- recall, recognition and precise use of knowledge;
- representation or translation between words, symbols, tables, examples or contexts;
- direct application and multi-step application;
- classification, comparison, sequencing or matching;
- interpretation, inference, justification or error analysis;
- familiar, unfamiliar and transfer contexts.
Use only forms that genuinely assess the requested skill.
For example, if the selected skill is solving two-step linear equations, distribute the questions as evenly as possible across these six families:
1. Standard equations in forms such as ax+b=c and ax-b=c.
2. Reversed or unfamiliar forms with the variable expression on the right.
3. Equations containing fractional coefficients.
4. Equations containing brackets that genuinely need to be expanded before solving.
5. Equations with a complete algebraic expression as the numerator of a fraction.
6. Mixed forms involving negative coefficients, negative constants, reversed equations, brackets or fractions.
Within that example, vary the position and letter of the unknown, the order of the equation, signs and operations. Include positive and negative solutions, use mainly integer solutions, and include simple fractional solutions only when suitable for the learner level. Use this as a model of structural planning, not as a fixed list for every topic. For any other skill or subject, create an equivalent set of distinct, subject-appropriate families.
DIFFICULTY AND QUESTION QUALITY
1. Unless the settings specify another balance, aim for roughly 25% accessible questions, 50% core questions and 25% challenging questions.
2. Increase difficulty through reasoning, representation, unfamiliar arrangement or the number of valid steps. Do not rely only on larger numbers, obscure vocabulary or trick wording.
3. Make every question self-contained, age-appropriate and clear enough to read quickly in a classroom.
4. Vary command words and sentence structures naturally, but do not treat wording changes as structural variety.
5. Avoid clues that reveal another card's answer. Avoid questions with several defensible answers unless the requested answer wording makes one response unequivocally correct.
6. Plan the complete answer set before finalising the questions when this helps secure unique destinations.
7. Keep answers short enough to be read from across a classroom. Include units or essential qualifiers when needed for correctness.
ANSWER UNIQUENESS
1. Every answer must be distinct in meaning, not only in appearance.
2. Treat differences in spacing, capitalisation, punctuation or harmless formatting as the same answer.
3. Treat equivalent mathematical values or expressions as the same answer, including 0.5 and 1/2, 50% and 1/2, or algebraically equivalent forms.
4. Do not create artificial uniqueness by adding question numbers, labels or unnecessary words to otherwise identical answers.
5. Rewrite any question whose answer duplicates or could reasonably be confused with another destination.
WORD FILE RULES
1. Replace the worked examples and complete exactly the requested number of rows in the attached table.
2. Keep only the existing columns Question number, Question and Answer.
3. Number used rows consecutively from 1 and leave every unused row blank.
4. Put one question in each used Question cell and its one correct answer in the matching Answer cell.
5. Do not choose card letters because the Loop Card Generator creates them.
6. Do not add headings, notes, extra tables, answer explanations, hyperlinks, scripts, macros, active content or images.
MATHEMATICS AND FORMULAE
1. For mathematics, science formulae or symbolic economics, use genuine editable Microsoft Word equations in Office Math Markup Language. Never use screenshots or equation images.
2. Put every mathematical expression in proper equation notation, including variables, numbers within expressions, equals signs, operations, fractions, powers, subscripts, roots, functions, derivatives, integrals, limits, sums, accents, growing brackets, matrices and symbols.
3. Keep ordinary sentence text as ordinary Word text. Mixed words and editable equations may appear in the same cell.
4. If genuine editable Word equations cannot be created, say so instead of replacing them with images or silently flattening them.
FINAL VERIFICATION
Before returning the file, silently:
1. Confirm that the planned question families are genuinely different and interleaved.
2. Independently solve, answer or fact-check every question.
3. Compare the complete answer list and remove all duplicate, equivalent or ambiguous answers.
4. Check the exact requested row count and consecutive numbering.
5. Check that every used row contains exactly one complete question and one answer.
6. Check that every unused row is blank and the original three-column structure is unchanged.
7. Check that all mathematics remains editable and correctly formatted.
FINAL RESPONSE
Attach only the completed .docx file, followed by one short sentence confirming the number of completed rows, that every item was checked, and that every answer is unique.
