About this tool

Drop in your spelling or vocabulary list and this generator arranges the words into a letter grid, hiding them forward, backward, and diagonally depending on how challenging you want the puzzle to be. It's the kind of low-prep handout that works for early finishers, sub plans, or a calm five minutes at the start of class while attendance gets sorted out. Because the puzzle is built from your own word list, it doubles as review rather than just busywork. Print a batch for the week and keep a few spares on hand for whoever finishes early.
