Solutions For Today’s NYT Connection (October 24)

It includes words like Bill, Program, Schedule, and Slate, all of which share the common theme of describing an ordered list.

Similarly, as you progress, you’ll soon recognize the next set of words that share a common theme.

The words Audio, Cooking, Games, and News are grouped together to form the green group. These words represent the various sections offered in the NYT.

The blue group includes various objects that you can create by folding paper.

Airplane, Crane, Fan, and Fortune teller can all be made with origami and are placed in the same group.
