Crossword Puzzles

I think that crossword puzzles are not only educational and fun but also addictive. You can use them for relaxing or breaking the ice in your classes. Now, why don't we try some questions? You have 20 minutes to think creatively and finish them. Let's start!


1. Fannee doolee likes boots, but hates galoshes. She likes glasses, but not reflectors. She likes sheets, but just doesn't like blankets. She also likes sunny days, too, but not weather. The question is: Does she like coffee or tea better?


2. I'm in food, not in drink

I'm in you, not in me

I'm in scooter, not bike

I'm in dog, not cat

I'm in envelop, not letters

What am I?


3. What does this say?

D

N

A

T

S


4. What word is always spelled correctly?


5. there are four letters in the word FIVE. Take two away to make four . Now take one more letter to make FIVE again .

It's overtime. Let's check your answers!

1. Fannee likes cofee better because all the things she likes have double letters in their spelling.

2. It's the letter "O" . It's easy, isn't it?

3. This says "stand up" . Because you say this word from the bottom.

4. It's neither "an" , or "one". Noword spells correctly except the word "correctly".

5. You have to delete two letter "F" and "E". The rest is IV (it's number four in Roman characters). Then, you delete "I", so we have V(five).

Wish you have fun with those puzzles!
