What grades does it suit?

Grades two through five. The word lists are everyday and classroom vocabulary, and the difficulty ramp means the front of the binder works for the younger end and the back stretches the older.

Do I have to print all 150 pages?

No. Most teachers print the whole thing once into a binder or a folder and let students take a page at a time; you can equally print a section at a time. Either way the licence has no limit.

Is it black and white?

Yes — it is designed for the school copier. Nothing depends on colour to be readable.

Are the answers included?

Yes, at the back. Fold them off before you copy, or keep that page for yourself and let students self-check when they are ready.

Can other teachers in my school use it?

The licence covers your own classroom. If a colleague wants it, please send them here rather than the file — it is $6.99 and it keeps this affordable for everyone.

Look inside

Building real pages…

The thing you want in the drawer when a third of the class has finished and there are eleven minutes left. 150 puzzles cycling five types, ramping from easy to hard, printed once at the start of the year and pulled from all the way to June.

Mixing the types is the point. A binder of a hundred and fifty word searches is a binder children stop choosing around week three; one that changes shape every page keeps its pull, and it means a student who finds one type hard is never stuck with a run of them.

Every word list has really been placed in its grid, checked automatically before the file is built — which matters more in a binder students work through unsupervised than anywhere else, because nobody is there to tell them the puzzle is fine and they should keep looking.
