This easy to use worksheet is the perfect start to a lesson to celebrate Dia de Los Muertos. It can be used as a starter or even a plenary to open a discussion about this amazing holiday.
Students must find different words relating to Day of the Dead in the word search looking for them across, vertically, horizontally and diagonally. Some letters are used twice to suit two words, so please let your students know that.
It shouldn’t take students more than 10 minutes to complete and if you’d like to expand the activity you could always explain why these words are specific to Day of the Dead. For example the meaning of the marigold or an explanation of what ofrendas are.
You will get a PDF copy of the word search with ANSWERS included. I’ve made sure there is a black and white version as well as coloured one depending on your printer.
You can also find a Day of Dead Quiz in my shop if you’d like to dedicate an entire lesson to exploring the customs of this holiday! https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/day-of-the-dead-quiz-12747942
