Keyboard: arrows to move, Enter to start a word, arrows to extend, Enter again to confirm, Esc to cancel.

At this size the theme gets to show its whole range. The planets, the drifting objects, the hardware and the abstractions all appear together, and there is room for the long entries to run at a slant without colliding. Nothing on the list is obscure, so the challenge comes from volume rather than from vocabulary.

This is the one to print. A large grid holds up well on paper, stays legible after a photocopy, and gives a group something they can share around a table or come back to over a few days. Activity leaders and teachers tend to reach for this size when one sheet has to last.

Divide the sheet into quarters and finish one quarter before moving on. On a board this wide, wandering across the whole page costs you far more time than working a small area properly.
