About this activity
What your child practises

Recognising and spelling words while scanning a grid carefully in every direction.
What’s included
- 9 words to find
- An answer key you can print with the sheet or on its own

Age and school year
Made for ages 6–12. That’s Grade 1–7 in the US, Year 2–8 in England, Primary 1 – JSS 1 in Nigeria and Class 1–7 in India.
How to use it
- Print it at home or school – it fits a standard A4 or US Letter page.
- Print the answer key too, so marking takes seconds.
- Play it on screen: answers are marked instantly and children earn stars.
- Write on it on a tablet or touchscreen with a finger or stylus – no printer needed.
Tips for parents and teachers
- Mark each find with a highlighter or coloured pencil; seeing progress keeps children going.
- Puzzles make great early-finisher or calm-down activities – keep a few printed copies in a folder.
- Pick a regular time – after a snack, say – so practice becomes a habit rather than a battle.
