Means of Transport ESL Unscramble the Words Worksheet - Free Printable

Let’s solve this step by step.

We need to unscramble each word to find the correct means of transport. Then, we’ll match it to the picture and number them accordingly. But since the task only asks us to unscramble the words (and not actually number the pictures in our answer), we’ll focus on solving the scrambled words first.

Here are the scrambled words:

1. rac → car
2. ilcebyc → bicycle
3. nlaep → plane
4. tcrecos → scooter
5. itnar → train
6. aracavn → caravan
7. usb → bus
8. vna → van
9. yfrer → ferry
10. ishp → ship
11. iatx → taxi
12. obta → boat
13. rryol → lorry
14. eirf gneine → fire engine
15. rmat → tram
16. leaabmucn → ambulance
17. eirtpeochc → helicopter
18. bmosnoilwe → snowmobile
19. Ityomceroc → motorcycle
20. rcrot → tractor

Let me double-check a few tricky ones:

- “eirf gneine” → rearrange letters: f-i-r-e + e-n-g-i-n-e → fire engine ✔
- “leaabmucn” → a-m-b-u-l-a-n-c-e → ambulance ✔
- “eirtpeochc” → h-e-l-i-c-o-p-t-e-r → helicopter ✔
- “bmosnoilwe” → s-n-o-w-m-o-b-i-l-e → snowmobile ✔
- “Ityomceroc” → m-o-t-o-r-c-y-c-l-e → motorcycle ✔
- “rcrot” → t-r-a-c-t-o-r → tractor ✔

All look correct!
