Every theme, three ways
The 60 lists above cover 126 ready-made puzzle pages: a word search and a word scramble for every theme, plus a crossword for the 6 with clues written for them. Every one is free, prints to US Letter or A4, and comes with its answers.
Questions, answered
What is a theme?
A ready-written word list. Pick one and the puzzle is already filled in, so you can print it straight away instead of typing thirty words yourself. You can still add your own words or take any of ours out.
Can I use the same theme for different puzzles?
Yes, and that is the point of the pairs on each card. The same word list makes a word search and a word scramble, and six of them make a crossword too, so you can hand out three different sheets on one topic.
Can I search inside the word lists?
Yes. The search box matches theme names and the words inside them, so typing PUMPKIN finds both Halloween and Thanksgiving. Useful when you know the word you want but not which theme we filed it under.
Do I have to use a theme at all?
No. Every maker takes your own words, and a puzzle built from your spelling list works exactly the same. Themes just save you the typing.
Are the themed puzzles free to print?
Yes, all of them, with no account, no email address and no watermark. Every download includes an answer key.
