Free September Word Scramble Printable
The September word scramble is a fun way to mix seasonal learning with a bit of problem-solving.
Kids will work through fall-themed words like apple, harvest, and leaves, picking up vocabulary as they unscramble each one.
It’s an easy activity to pull out during quiet time, transitions, or as part of your autumn plans at home or in the classroom.

September Scramble Words
This word scramble printable contains three pages, each designed to suit different age groups and skill levels:
- Words Around the Side – Great for younger kids who need a bit of support. The word list is printed around the edges to help with spelling and recognition.
- No Word Bank – A more challenging option for older children who like to work independently.
- Answer Sheet – Gives kids a chance to check their own work or get help if they’re stuck.
Each version uses the same set of scrambled words and includes a small apple illustration at the bottom for kids to color once they’ve finished, a simple reward that adds a bit of fun.
I recommend keeping a pencil and eraser handy, some of the words (like “orchard” or “autumn”) can be tricky!
