"Being a Wordle fanatic myself, I knew my 4th grade GT students would be up for this challenging word game. I never imagined that they could answer the word on their first attempt at the game in 2 tries!  AMAZING! You can only imagine the excitement in the room," Suzanne Horan told KENS 5. "I was jumping up and down."

The free, daily word game is accessible online only through this link. The 5-letter word guessing game can only be played once a day. The answer is always the same for everyone, so this story isn't spoiling anything for anyone.

The rules are pretty simple:

  • Guess the WORDLE in 6 tries.
  • Each guess must be a valid 5 letter word. Hit the enter button to submit.
  • After each guess, the color of the tiles will change to show how close your guess was to the word.

There are only six attempts available to guess the word with the only clues given being the yellow or green squares. The clock resets at midnight.
