About this word search
This list is built for the final years of primary school, with Spelling test, Times tables and Protractor next to the Headteacher, the Caretaker and the Coat peg. Blazer and Uniform are a reminder of how many British schools dress.
Pencil sharpener and Exercise book are the longest entries and lose their spaces. With all eight directions possible over eighteen squares, they make the best anchors. Scissors has a double S, and Dictionary and Geography both contain a Y.
For a fast finisher, add a follow-up: sort the list into people, places, objects and subjects, then see which group is the largest.
