About this word search
The Gunpowder Plot of 1605 aimed to kill King James by blowing up the House of Lords at Westminster. Guy Fawkes was caught guarding barrels of gunpowder in a cellar beneath it, and the failed plot gave Britain, and later New Zealand, a night of bonfires and fireworks. The old rhyme still starts with Remember, remember, the fifth of November.
Remember remember is the longest, with sixteen letters, and Catherine wheel has fourteen. Bang and Fizz are the shortest, with four letters. Westminster, King James and Parliament carry the history, and the double Z in Fizz and Sizzle stands out. The grid is eighteen by eighteen and words run in all eight directions, backwards too.
In a history lesson, students can find the words and then retell the plot in five sentences, using at least five words from the list.
