About Writing Crosswords

This writing crossword challenges kids to connect clues with answers like Noun, Verb, and Adjective. The intersecting words give helpful hints — if you get one answer, the next one becomes easier.

Medium crosswords are excellent for developing inference skills. Kids read a clue, consider what they know about writing, and test their answer against the crossing words — a rich learning loop.
