WorksheetsAbout this worksheet
A word search hides words in a grid of letters. It is a quiet way to practise spelling, because the child must look at every letter of the word in order. Use a ready list, or choose My own words and type this week's spelling list, the names of the class, or words from a lesson.
Tips for parents and teachers
- Own words: English letters only, up to 14 words. A word longer than the grid is left out.
- Easy level suits classes 1 and 2. Backwards words are for older children and grown-ups.
- Ask the child to tick each word in the list as it is found, and to say it aloud.
