Try Chalkie for freeChalkie generates exactly what your classroom needs

The reality
Why teachers are looking beyond Twinkl
Twinkl has its place, but teachers needing truly flexible, personalised resources are running into the same walls over and over.
Templates that never quite fit
Downloaded resources rarely match your exact topic, year group, or the ability range in your actual classroom. You end up adapting anyway.
No real differentiation built in
Creating scaffold and stretch versions of the same worksheet means doubling your workload — Twinkl doesn't generate these automatically for your class.
Static content for dynamic classrooms
Pre-made resources can't be edited to your curriculum framework, your students' needs, or the direction a lesson actually took.
The tools Twinkl simply cannot offer
Chalkie combines AI lesson planning, built-in differentiation, and curriculum alignment in one place. Here are the features teachers switching from Twinkl rely on most.
Differentiation
Scaffold and stretch versions in one click
Chalkie automatically generates easier and harder versions of every worksheet and activity in a single generation — no manual duplication needed. Use the AI Slide Editor to simplify or extend any slide in plain English for any ability level.
- Scaffold and Stretch versions generated simultaneously
- Edit slides: 'differentiate for lower ability'
- Works on lessons, worksheets, and activities
Lesson Planning
Complete lesson slides in under 30 seconds
Chalkie generates a full, curriculum-aligned lesson slideshow — slides, key vocabulary, learning objectives, and structured activities — in under 30 seconds. Enter your topic, year group, and curriculum framework and Chalkie builds the lesson for you.
- Slides, vocab, and activities in 30 seconds
- Exports to Google Slides, PowerPoint, or PDF
- Curriculum-aligned across 23 countries
Worksheet Generation
Unique worksheets generated fresh every time
Unlike template-based resources, Chalkie generates unique, curriculum-aligned worksheets with mixed question types on any topic and level. Every worksheet is ready to print or share digitally — and never the same twice.
- Multiple choice, short answer, fill-in-the-blank
- Scaffold and Stretch versions in one click
- Print-ready or digital share
Resource Flexibility
Turn your existing materials into new lessons
Already have resources you like? Upload your existing files, PDFs, or URLs and Chalkie will use them as the basis for new lessons, worksheets, and activities. Keep what works and let AI do the heavy lifting.
- Upload PDFs, documents, or images
- Base new lessons on existing materials
- Works across lessons, worksheets, and activities
