Newspaper Crosswords

Newspaper Crossword puzzles are tightly packed and are famous for being in many newspapers. However, Newspaper Crosswords are awful for teaching purpuses.

Why are Newspaper Crosswords so bad for educating?

Because:

  • They can't be easily made with special themes and word lists.
  • Most of the words are 'filler words.' These are added words that are needed to make the puzzle tightly packed and can't be customized much.
  • They are very difficult for most students to complete.
