Introducing Word Rush: A Boggle-Inspired Google Sheets Extension for Fun and Learning
Are you a fan of word games like Boggle? Or perhaps an educator looking for an engaging way to help students master essential vocabulary? Look no further—Word Rush, my new Google Sheets extension, is here to bring the excitement of word hunting to your spreadsheets! Whether you’re a Boggle enthusiast or a teacher aiming to make learning interactive, Word Rush offers two unique game modes designed to entertain, challenge, and educate.
Free Form Play: Unleash Your Inner Word Wizard
Love the thrill of finding words in a jumble of letters? The Free Form Play mode is perfect for you. Here’s how it works:
- Board Generation: Word Rush creates a random letter grid right in your Google Sheet, just like the classic Boggle board.
- Word Validation: Using a robust 23,000-word database—curated from the most common English words identified by top AI language models in 2025—the extension checks every word you find.
- Real-Time Feedback: Type your discovered words into the designated space, and if they exist on the board and in our database, they’ll turn green. Plus, they’re scored based on traditional Boggle rules (longer words = more points!).
- Endless Fun: Play solo to beat your high score or challenge friends to see who can uncover the most words.
This mode is ideal for casual gamers, word nerds, or anyone looking to sharpen their vocabulary skills while having a blast.
Educator Mode: Sight Words Made Simple
For teachers, parents, or tutors, the second game mode is a game-changer. Designed with learning in mind, this mode transforms Word Rush into a powerful educational tool:
- Predefined Keyword Lists: Choose a set of keywords, like Dolch Sight Words, 3rd Grade Fry Sight Words, 4th Grade Fry Sight Words etc.
- Smart Board Creation: The extension generates a tailored letter grid guaranteed to include at least 5-10 words from your selected list, mixed with other common words for added challenge.
- Student-Friendly: Assign the game to students via Google Sheets. They’ll hunt for words, type them in, and watch correct answers light up green—making learning feel like play.
- Track Progress: Since it’s all in Google Sheets, you can easily monitor student performance and see which words they’ve mastered.
This mode is perfect for classroom activities, homework assignments, or homeschooling sessions. It’s an interactive way to reinforce sight words and boost literacy skills without the monotony of flashcards.
