If you have a list of spelling words each week, ask him to use those. These will eventually be hidden in the puzzle by your child. On the FREE download (at the end of this post) you’ll find a smaller grid for 8 words and larger one for 12 words, making this an appropriate activity for kids K-5.Ģ- Ask your child to write his spelling words on the lines at the bottom of the puzzle. I promise! It takes about 1 minute to prep and the rest of the work belongs to the child.ġ- Simply print off the blank puzzle of your choice. How to Make a Spelling Word Search Puzzles And when kids do the work in fun ways, THEY benefit from all the learning.
My favorite thing about these spelling word search puzzles is that he (not I) was doing all the work. Why was it blank? Because HE made the puzzles. Just recently, I made a blank spelling word search puzzles for my son. While reading and spelling words in the context of reading or writing should be a child’s main diet, practicing words out of context in fun and hands-on ways is a great way to build fluency and zero in on spelling patterns and/or tricky words (like I talk about in my spelling ebook, Teaching Kids to Spell.) I’m always trying to find or think of different ways for my 2nd grade reader and speller to interact with his words so he has multiple and meaningful exposure with them.
