Jumbled Words

Jumble is a word problem in which letters of a word are to be arranged to make a meaningful word. Sometimes, we can also have jumbled words that are to be arranged to make a meaningful sentence.
Arranging letters in a meaningful way to form a word assesses a student's spelling ability, whereas arranging words in a meaningful sentence assesses a student's grammar. Students must understand the correct structure of the sentence in order to arrange the words in a meaningful sentence.
