IMPORTANT: At the bottom right, click Static and then click Create Puzzle.

After clicking Create Puzzle, you will see the screen at the left. Click either Generate a New Puzzle or Use this Puzzle.

Once you click Use this Puzzle, your students will see the same puzzle each time rather than a randomly generated puzzle.

If you happen to have a small number of words (or short words), only a few words may get generated in the puzzle.

Web Browser – Crossword Activity

As mentioned previously, you can designate a certain puzzle to appear each time.

If you don’t use the Create Puzzle button in SoftChalk Create, then each time the crossword puzzle is generated in the web browser, a different configuration may appear.
