This is the first of our four Eleven Plus Verbal Reasoning quizzes about Anagrams. ‘What are anagrams?’ I hear you ask. Well, an anagram is a word which has had its letters mixed-up. In this quiz it is up to you to unscramble the letters and find the correct word.
It’s not just about unscrambling the letters though. Sometimes you can make two or more words from a set of letters. If that happens then you must decide which word fits best in the given sentence.
If that’s still not clear don’t worry – we’ve given you an example question and answer at the start of the quiz which explains exactly what you need to do. Read that first and then try the quiz. Anagrams are not that difficult once you’ve had some practise and these quizzes will give you plenty of that! Good luck.
