About this word search
Jeweller keeps its double L in Canadian spelling, and Translator is a busy profession in a country where federal documents appear in both English and French. Optometrist and Pharmacist are worth pulling apart too: one checks your eyes, the other fills the prescription.
In the eighteen by eighteen grid, words run forwards, backwards and diagonally. The Z in ZOOKEEPER and the doubled Es in BEEKEEPER are useful anchors. CROSSINGGUARD and NEWSANCHOR appear as single strings.
Students choosing high school courses can pick three jobs from the list and research the training each one needs.
