ESL Classroom Activity Toolkit

Anagrams

Create word scramble challenges. Students unscramble letters to form the correct word. Add optional hints to make it easier or harder.

WordHint (optional)

Can I add hints for each word?

Yes, each word can have an optional hint that students can reveal if they need help solving the anagram.

How are the letters scrambled?

Letters are randomly rearranged each time, so the same word will have a different scrambled order on repeat plays.

Is there a word length limit?

The tool works well with words of various lengths. Very long words may be more challenging but are fully supported.

Can students rearrange letters by dragging?

Yes, students can drag and drop letter tiles into the correct order, making it interactive and hands-on.

Enter your wordsType the words you want students to unscramble. You can add optional hints to help guide them.

Solve by rearrangingStudents drag and drop or rearrange the scrambled letters to form the correct word.
Use hints if neededIf students are stuck, they can reveal the hint you provided for an extra clue without seeing the full answer.

Choose words of varying length — mix short 4-letter words with longer ones to provide a range of difficulty.
Write meaningful hints that give context without giving away the answer, like "a type of animal" for "tiger".
Use curriculum vocabulary so students practice spelling words they actually need to learn.
Set a timer for each word to add excitement and a sense of urgency to the activity.

Spelling practice where students unscramble weekly vocabulary words.
Warm-up activities at the start of class to activate prior knowledge about a topic.
Fun review sessions before tests where key terms are scrambled for students to decode.
