It\u2019s a fun twist on classic word search games. Every day we\u2019re given a new theme and then tasked with uncovering all the words on the grid that fit that theme, including a spangram that spans two sides of the board. One of these words is the spangram which crosses from one side of the grid to another and reveals even more about the day\u2019s theme.<\/p>\n<p>Spoilers ahead.<\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s Strands Hints<\/p>\n<p>Read on for today\u2019s theme and some hints to help you uncover today\u2019s words.<\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s Theme: Provinces of the Pantheon<\/p>\n<p>Hint: Normally I give the first two letters of each word as a clue.

It was also a bit of fun to list all the gods associated with each DOMAIN (today\u2019s spangram) though the Norse gods don\u2019t quite line up to each of these as well as the Roman and Greek, the Romans having pretty much copied the Greek myths and pantheon in one of the most egregious examples of cultural appropriation in history. <\/p>\n<p>How did you do on your Strands today?
