Prefer a ready-to-print collection?

Want a ready-made set? Each pack is a one-time download with answer keys, in US Letter and A4.

Start with a theme or paste the vocabulary you want to practise, then check the generated word list before downloading. For a classroom worksheet, keep the list focused on one lesson and choose words learners already recognise. The default medium difficulty includes diagonal words; switch to Easy if you want a simpler introduction with words running only right and down.

The PDF contains the puzzle on the first page and its answer key on the second. Print only page one for learners and keep page two for checking together afterwards. Check your printer preview before making a class set, and avoid shrinking the page unnecessarily. A short practice round online can help you decide whether the grid suits your group.
