About this word search

Canadian science has its own moment here. Insulin was first isolated at the University of Toronto in 1921, and the Nobel committee honoured the work two years later. Experiment, Hypothesis and Research describe the method behind that kind of breakthrough.

Horizontal, vertical and slanting words appear, all spelled the normal way. MICROSCOPE and HYPOTHESIS are good long starts. Atom, Cell and Heat are four letters each, and Proton and Electron share an ending.

A seniors' science circle or a curious family can pick three words and explain them to someone else in plain language.

Ways to use this word search

  • With your coffee

    Print a sheet for a quiet moment at the kitchen table or in your armchair. Start with the regular version and save the hard one for when you really have time for it.

  • On the go

    Slip a few printed sheets into your bag for the train, a waiting room or a weekend away. A pen is all you need, no screen required.

  • Puzzle together

    Bring the sheet to your book club, a night in with friends or a visit to your parents and see who finds every word first. Or play online and find out who is fastest.

Try it in Spanish too

The same theme also exists in Spanish, French, German and Italian, each with its own word list in that language. Handy if you are learning a language: you already know the topic, now just the words.
