About this word search
Lasagne is the usual British spelling of the dish, while lasagna is more common in America. In Italian, lasagna is a single sheet of pasta and lasagne the plural, so both are correct in their own way.
Spaghetti and Mozzarella are good long words to start with. In the fourteen by fourteen grid, words lie across, down and on the diagonal, always forwards. Oven and Olive both start with O, so check the second letter.
On pizza night, give each person a sheet and see who finishes first. Afterwards, divide the words into things you put on a pizza and things you would find in an Italian kitchen.
