What is a Crossword?

A STEM crossword uses subject-area vocabulary as the answer words. Each clue defines a term from the featured field: biology, physics, chemistry, math, or computer science.

How to solve it

Start with clues whose answers you know for certain, since filled letters unlock adjacent clues. Use the crossing letters to confirm uncertain answers.

Who is this for?

STEM crosswords are perfect for science and math classrooms, tutoring sessions, gifted programs, and anyone who loves both puzzles and learning.
