How do we get started?

The free version allows you to create unlimited puzzles, and you can revisit them year after year. Follow the onscreen directions to create a reusable completely digital crossword puzzle. Use this after introducing vocabulary, reviewing vocabulary and homework!
Students:
No account necessary.
Students will participate by answering the crossword clues on the board with the class. For classrooms with interactive boards, use the keyboard button on the pen tray to give users the ability to stand at the board and press letters instead of typing from the computer keyboard. Note: Students can create an account to create their own crossword puzzles or work yours!
What's the Best Way to Use Crossword Labs?
This tool can be used in a whole/small group setting and projected onto an interactive whiteboard. Have students use Crossword Labs at home to play and create their own puzzles, too!
Type a public username at the beginning of your new Crossword Title. To search click Find a Crossword > Search > type public username. This will make it easy for students to find your puzzles.
