Vocabulary for the search

Recognize the theme vocabulary before scanning the grid. Examples include pencil, book, desk, backpack, ruler, board. Follow the activity’s own list; these examples are conversation starters, not an inventory of every sheet.

After the activity

Group objects by use: writing, measuring, storing or reading; some may have more than one use. Practice vocabulary for recognizable school objects and spaces.

Use a search method

Find a word’s first letter and check its next letter before following the whole sequence. Mark from the first letter to the last and cross the entry off the list. Words can share letters: finding one does not remove those cells from other searches.
