Which one to choose
- Word search: new vocabulary, early readers, a quiet five minutes.
- Crossword: review at the end of a unit, when pupils should know the meaning, not only the spelling.
How to prepare one
- Write the words you want to revise.
- For a crossword, add a short clue for each word.
- Create the puzzle and check the preview.
- Download the PDF. The answer key is a separate page, so you can print only the puzzle for pupils.
Tips
- Keep clues short and in the language of the class.
- Do the puzzle yourself first to check that the clues are clear.
- Keep the answer key for self-correction at the end.
