Crossword puzzles
- The crossword puzzle is an innovative, fun reading
comprehension tool. Our Crossword Puzzle Archive includes the
complete collection of article-based puzzles posted each week
since we began this feature in July 2003. The title of each
puzzle is simply the title of the article(s) upon which it is
based. You can either print the puzzles with their clues and
fill them out by hand, or fill them out online. Enter this
section through the Crossword Puzzles banner link on the
Teacher’s Corner page. Then select from a list of our most
recently posted puzzles, or from one of the different subject
categories listed at the top of the page. To read the article or
articles associated with the puzzle, click on the link provided
under Featured Article at the top of the crossword. The article
will open in a separate window, allowing you to continue to
complete the puzzle without losing any work.
