Science Scramble Puzzles - Challenge Puzzles

In my room I have a challenge board where students can work on science related puzzles. The kids can work on them when they are done with their work or when we have some free time between lessons. They earn points which they can turn in for a free piece of candy, an eraser, one extra day homework pass, etc.

I love to play Scrabble, so I made some fun science puzzles with a Scrabble/Science theme. Each word is a 7 letter science vocabulary term that is scrambled up and the kids have to find 3, 4, 5, & 6 letter words using those letters. They also have to figure out the 7 letter science word.

I used a Scrabble-like font for the tiles, which is easy to find if you do a quick search. (the one I used is called Scramble, similar to this one) Looking through the glossaries of Physical Science and Earth Science Textbooks, I found a ton of 7 letter science words, and some 6 letter words that I just added an "S" to!

The answer to the 7-letter term is the name of the file I saved it as. I also use this website to see how many word combinations are possible for each word.

Once I made a template in word, it was very easy to make a large batch of them at once. (If you don't see the word 'template' in scrabble-like tiles, you will need to add the font to your computer)
