Inklings PaperPhysics
Newton to Einstein, on paper.
Printable physics worksheets, every problem drawn with its diagram.
Zero student screen timeprinted, worked in pencil
Measurement to relativity.
487 topics across ten levels, from Grade 6 to modern physics.
Diagrams drawn to scale.
Free-body diagrams, ramps, pulleys, circuits and rays, so a 30° slope really is drawn at 30°.
Zero student screen time.
They work on a printed page with a pencil. Only you use the app, to print each sheet and grade it with a few taps.
Printable physics worksheets that adapt to your student, from measurement and Newton's laws all the way to special relativity.
You tick what your student already knows. Inklings PaperPhysics builds a worksheet from the next few topics in the course, and you print it. They work on paper, away from a screen, with a pencil and a calculator. Then you open the same worksheet on your device, tap the problems they got wrong, and the next worksheet takes account of it — holding a topic back until it is solid, and slipping in the occasional refresher from something already mastered.
How it works
- Optionally set a parent PIN. If you do, answers, grading and the answer key sit behind it; if you don't, nothing in the app ever asks for one.
- Mark what your student already knows, or leave it blank to start at units and measurement.
- Print the worksheet, or share it as a PDF.
- Grade by tapping the wrong problems on a copy of the printed page.
- The next worksheet is built from what that grading showed.
What is inside
- 487 topics across ten levels: Grades 6 to 12, then Electricity & Magnetism, Calculus-Based Physics, and Modern Physics & Relativity. The course is taken topic by topic, and nothing arrives before what it depends on.
- Numbers are generated fresh each time. A new topic starts with two problems and round numbers, and grows to full multi-step problems as your student gets it right.
- Diagrams drawn to scale — free-body diagrams, ramps and pulleys, circuits, ray diagrams, field lines and graphs — so a 30° slope really is drawn at 30°.
- Trigonometry wherever the physics needs it: components, slopes, projectiles, torque, refraction, and more.
- A full worked solution for every problem. While grading, tap a problem marked wrong and choose See Full Solution: the law comes first, then every step with that problem's own numbers, often with a picture.
- A how-to page for every topic, with the method, the common mistakes and worked examples.
- 660 hand-picked videos, one to three for each topic, a tap away from the worksheet.
- A test at the end of each quarter of a level — two Mid-Terms, a Semester Final and a Final — plus tests and worksheets you put together yourself.
- Up to 30 students on one device, each with their own progress, worksheets and history.
What it needs
- An iPhone or iPad running iOS 17 or later.
- A printer for the worksheets. Any AirPrint printer works. If you have no printer, you can share the worksheet as a PDF and print it elsewhere.
- An internet connection only for watching the videos. Everything else works offline.
What it doesn't do
- No adverts, no analytics, no tracking, no accounts, no in-app purchases.
- No network connections of its own. Everything your student does stays on your device. The only thing that ever leaves the app is a video you choose to open, which plays in YouTube or Safari.
