Free printable finish the word
Finish the Word is a picture-and-spelling sheet: twelve numbered rows, each with a small drawing and a strip of letter boxes whose last box is empty. You name the object and write that final letter so the word is complete. Early readers, ESL learners, and anyone who likes a short visual warm-up enjoy working down the list with a pencil.

How to play
- Look at the picture on each of the twelve numbered rows.
- Use the drawing and the letters already shown to name the object.
- Write the missing last letter in the empty box so the word is spelled in full.
- Finish all twelve rows, then check the solution page if you want to confirm.
Print at 100% scale on letter or A4 paper, centered, so the 6x9 letter boxes stay large enough to write in.
Frequently asked questions
Where can I find the answer key for this Finish the Word page?
The completed words are on a second printable image titled Solutions. Download that PNG with the puzzle, or print it later if you want solvers to finish first. Puzzle 1 on the solution sheet matches this page row for row, with every last letter filled in.
Is this Finish the Word printable really free?
Yes. The puzzle and the solution download as free PNG files. There is no account and no email gate, so you can print copies for home practice or class. This page is a single sheet you can keep; it is not a book or an on-screen game.
Who is this Finish the Word puzzle for?
This sheet is a last-letter spelling drill, so it fits early readers, spelling practice, and mixed-age tables where a picture is easier than a written clue. The twelve everyday objects—plants, food, a piano, a plane—are familiar enough for young solvers with a little help. Adults using it as a warm-up will finish it in a few minutes.
How should I print this page so the letter boxes stay usable?
Print the high-resolution PNG at 100% scale on letter or A4 paper so the 6x9 layout stays true. Skip fit-to-page shrinking or the empty boxes get too small to write in comfortably. Black ink on ordinary paper is plenty; a slightly heavier sheet is nicer if children will erase.
