National Superhero Day Word Scramble - Classroom Activity

I made this word scramble for my 3rd graders last year when we celebrated National Superhero Day on April 28th. It's a simple 2-page PDF with 24 scrambled superhero-themed words that got my whole class excited.

You'll find:

• Page 1: The scramble worksheet with words like "hero," "cape," and "sidekick"

• Page 2: A no-frills answer key for easy checking

I used this as:
• A morning warm-up activity
• A break between lessons
• A fun way to end our superhero writing unit

The words range from easy ("mask") to challenging ("superpower") so all my students could participate. I printed them on bright blue and red paper to match the superhero theme.

What worked best:

• Having students work in pairs to solve the tougher words

• Letting them create their own superhero name using 3 unscrambled words

• Using it as a quiet activity after lunch

The kids especially liked finding "villain" and "rescue" - it sparked great discussions about real-life heroes too!

Format: Basic PDF (2 pages)
