About this worksheet
A hard 15 by 15 word search about what is under the skin: brain, heart, lungs, stomach, liver, kidneys, intestines, skeleton, skull, ribs, spine, bones, muscles, blood, veins and skin. Words run in all eight directions, backwards too, so it suits third graders and up. The solution is on page 2. Third graders can use it for a simple human body science lesson, around ages 8 to 9.
Tips for using it
- Before any worksheet, play "touch your...": call out a body part and have kids touch it on themselves. The labels stick much faster after the body has done it.
- On the labeling pages, read the word bank aloud together first and cross each word out once it is used.
- For the cut and paste page, cut the word cards first and lay them on the table; younger kids can glue them while you read.
- Pair the measuring page with real objects: connecting cubes, paper clips or LEGO bricks all work as units.
Printing tips
Download the PDF and print at 100% (or “fit to page” on A4). Page 1 is the worksheet and page 2 is the answer key with the answers in red; print just page 1 if you want to keep the answers for checking. Free for personal, family and classroom use.
