You get a 6×8 grid of letters. Find all theme words plus the "spangram" that spans the grid and reveals the theme. Connect letters horizontally, vertically, or diagonally to form words. Find 3 non-theme words to unlock a hint.
This theme explores the vocabulary of physical failure and fragmentation. You should look for verbs that describe how different materials respond when they are forced to divide. Check out the full Strands Hint below for more details.
