Letter Grid Word Game Generator

Print free letter grid word games for grades 1–5. Kids build words by joining tiles that touch — up, down, sideways or corner to corner — and score points for longer words. Show a list of words to find, set a goal for free play, or plant your own spelling words; add a Qu tile, recording lines or a table by word length, and an answer key with every path.

4 × 4 with the word list suits grades 1–2; 5 × 5 free play with a goal of 12+ words is a real challenge for grades 3–5. Great for literacy centers and fast finishers.
