How to solve a crossword

Fill the white squares so every numbered clue reads across or down.

The method

1Read the clue and its number. Each number in the grid starts an answer going across or down. Find the clue with that number and direction.
2Count the squares. The run of white squares after the number tells you how many letters the answer has.
3Write the answers you are sure of first. Start with the clues you know. Each answer you fill hands letters to the clues that cross it.
4Use the crossing letters. A shared letter from an answer you have placed narrows a crossing clue, often to a single word.

The one rule: Every white square belongs to an across answer and a down answer, and the two must agree on their shared letter.
What the answer page shows: The completed grid is printed at the back.
How the grades differ: Easier puzzles use common words and plain clues; harder ones use trickier wording and longer answers.
Good for: Word lovers, from a gentle themed puzzle to a classic challenge.
