How to make a word scramble

  1. Type your words, one per line or with commas. A theme, such as Animals, goes in the title.
  2. Turn on hints to print the first letter of each word on its line.
  3. Press Build sheet, then print the words and the answer key.

Questions teachers ask

Can a scrambled word come out as the word itself?

No. A word with two or more different letters always comes out in a new order. A word such as aaa, with one letter only, is shown as it is with a note.

Does it work with Hindi, Arabic or Vietnamese words?

Yes. Words are mixed up by the letters a reader sees, so a Hindi conjunct or a letter with its marks always stays together.

How many words fit on one sheet?

Up to 100 words. A page holds 44 short words in two columns; a longer list goes on to the next page, and no word is ever cut.
