About this word search
This list covers the basics of physics, chemistry and biology. Atom comes from a Greek word meaning uncuttable, which made sense until scientists found the Electron and Proton inside it. Hypothesis and Theory are often confused in everyday speech, but in science a theory is a well-tested explanation, not a guess.
Diagonal lines are fair, reversed spelling is not. Experiment, Hypothesis and Microscope are the longest. Short words like Cell and Heat tend to be found last.
Afterward, try a simple experiment at home or in a classroom, such as using a Magnet to test which objects in the room it attracts.
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
