Author's note:

"I taught 9th grade science for 19 years. What I found that really worked, is to use the multiple forms of crossword puzzles for reviews or homework. The program creates multiple crossword puzzles from the same set of vocabulary words and definitions. When students fill in the puzzles, they are forced to use the vocabulary terms and definitions. They can't ask their buddy, 'What is 1 Across?', because their buddy is likely to reply 'I don't have a 1 Across'."
