Word searches Seasons and Months x5

What’s included?
This download includes x10 (portrait orientation, pdf) A4 sheets a total of five word searches including Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter and Months of the year. Each word search is on page 1, the answers are on page 2, displayed in the same layout (as page 1) to promote autonomy whilst providing easy comparison/quick reference.

Who’s it for?
This word search has been designed for pupils the early years, in years one and two, as well as students needing additional learning support.

Resource layout
The word search letters are arranged in a x10 by x10 square grid and featuring easy to read size 25 ‘Sassoon Infant Std’ font.

The words have been organised into four groups, displayed below each word search. Most nouns have been illustrated next the the word, supporting early readers and learners with EAL.

These words are hidden horizontally (forwards and backwards), vertically (up as well as down) and diagonally (forwards and backwards). Arrows showing the direction for hidden words for each individual word search are displayed at the top of page 1.

Recommendations
I recommend that learners use a ‘highlighter’ style pen when finding the hidden words as highlighters enable all letters to remain visible once each word has been identified as some letters have been used more than once.
