About this word search
Most of these twenty words name something a child can point to without leaving the room. Pencil, Eraser and Ruler are probably in a backpack right now. Recess is the odd one out, borrowed from a Latin word for stepping back or withdrawing, which is a fair description of what happens when the bell rings.
On this grid, words run across, down or along a diagonal, but always in the usual reading direction. Whiteboard and Playground are the longest, ten letters each. Gym is only three letters and the easiest to miss.
In the first weeks after summer vacation, a teacher can hand this out during homeroom and then ask everyone which word describes their favorite part of the day.
