About this word search
Term 1 starts in late January or early February, and with it comes a fresh set of pencils, a new teacher and a room full of names to learn. This list follows an ordinary school day, from the Bell in the morning through Recess and Lunch to the Homework that comes home in the Backpack.
Each word in this grid lies flat, stands upright or tilts on a slant, and all of them read the right way round. Whiteboard and Playground are the longest at ten letters, a good place to start. Rubber is the word Australian children use for the thing that fixes a pencil mistake.
Once the grid is done, ask the class to sort the words into things you can hold and things that happen, such as Maths, Reading and Art.
