Printable flash card decks, editable before you print them
51 ready-made decks — 7,360 cards in all. Somebody else typed the 315 Dolch sight words, all 118 elements and the 195 world capitals. You get the printable PDF with the backs already mirrored, and the deck loads into the free flash card maker so you can reword any card before you print it.
The card counts on this page are the real ones
Marketplace decks pad a small subject out to a round number with clip art. We do not. The alphabet deck is 78 cards because the alphabet is 26 letters in three forms. The presidents deck is 47 because there have been 47 presidencies. The periodic table is 118 because there are 118 elements. Where a deck is smaller than you might expect, its page says why in one sentence — and where it is bigger, that is because the subject is.

Questions
How much is a flash card deck?
$1.29. Each one is a complete printable deck — fronts and correctly mirrored backs, eight cards to a sheet with cut guides — and it also loads into the free flash card maker on this site, where you can edit every card before you print.
How many cards are in a deck?
It depends entirely on the subject, and we print the true number rather than a round one. The periodic table is 118 because there are 118 elements. The states and capitals deck is 150 because it is fifty states with three facts each. Nothing is padded out with filler to reach 150.
Can I edit the cards, or is it a fixed PDF?
Both. You get the printable PDF, and a link that loads the whole deck into the free flash card maker — where you can reword a definition, delete the cards you do not teach, add your own, change the layout from two to nine cards a page, and print again. The first 20 cards of every deck load for free before you buy anything.
How do I print them double-sided?
Print double-sided and flip on the LONG edge. Every front sheet is followed by its own back sheet with the rows already mirrored for that flip. Printing backs in the same order as fronts puts every answer on the wrong card — which nobody discovers until sixty cards have been cut apart, so it is done for you.
Do I need an account?
No. Checkout is Stripe and all we keep is the email you buy with, so we can send your download link. The link does not expire, and it is also what unlocks the deck in the maker.
Can I use a deck with more than one class?
Yes — unlimited printing for every class you teach, for as many years as you teach them. The licence does not cover reselling the file or passing it to colleagues.
