A "Daily Word Ladder" is a type of word puzzle where players begin with a starting word and change one letter at a time to form a new word, aiming to reach a target word. Each intermediate word must be a valid English word. In the context of grades 4–6, these puzzles typically focus on improving vocabulary, spelling, and word recognition skills. An answer key for such puzzles would list the correct sequence of words for a given ladder, showing how the starting word can be transformed into the target word, with each step involving one-letter changes. For example, starting with "COLD" and ending with "WARM," the sequence could go: COLD → CORD → WORD → WORM → WARM. The answer key helps educators or students check the accuracy of their word transformation process.
