Boggle - 2023 Quarter 2
Q&A
Q: Can I repeat words?
A: In Boggle, words cannot be repeated so I am going with no. You may find words that other players have found because we are playing individually and not against each other.

Welcome, Jana! First, you will find words on the Boggle board in message 1 (rules are also found in message 1). It might help to make a list of the words that you find. Then you will find books with those words in the text. One word per book. It is a relatively simple game. Message 2 will have Q&A answers as people ask questions so be sure to read everything in both messages 1 & 2. There is no minimum or maximum # of books that you are required to read. This is an individual challenge at your own pace. You may take a peek at the last quarter if you want. It is still running until the end of the month. https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

I had a great time coming up with a huge list of words - far more than I'll be able to use!
