About the sheets
About these word scrambles
How the sheets work
Each word's letters are shuffled onto tiles; write the real word on the line next to them. Easy sheets put the first letter on the line and list every answer in a word bank at the bottom. Medium sheets keep the word bank. Hard sheets give no help at all.
No scramble spells its own answer, another answer on the same sheet, or any other dictionary word.
Who uses them
To solve a scramble you have to spell the word yourself rather than just recognise it, which makes them useful for vocabulary practice. Teachers use them for holiday words and early finishers. Party hosts use them because everyone gets the same sheet and the answer key settles who won.
Printing
Every sheet is free, with no sign-up. The PDFs are US Letter size and print on A4 with your printer's fit-to-page setting. Page 1 is the puzzle and page 2 is the answer key, so print just page 1 for the solvers.
