What is the spangram in todays Strands?

Completed NYT Strands board for June 11, 2024: HOLD UP…

Todays spangram is ALLRISE.

What are the theme words in todays Strands?

The theme words today are: ELEVATE, LIFT, SUPPORT, EXALT, HOIST, LEVITATE, BOOST.

I see ELEVATE in the upper left corner.

Below LIFT is SUPPORT.

I see BOLSTER in the bottom left corner, but apparently thats a non-theme word.

SOLVE isnt a theme word, either.

Hmm, this is a tricky one.

I find EXALT below ELEVATE.

Next, I see BOOST in the bottom left , which helps me find the spangram: ALLRISE.

HOIST is below the spangram.

Strands is newer and still in beta, so its not yet in the NYT Games app.

Your job is to find the hidden words within the board that reflect the puzzles theme.

When you find the spangram, it will be highlighted in yellow.

Solving the spangram usually makes the rest of the puzzle much easier to complete.

There is only one correct solution.
