About this worksheet
Fourteen words about the people and the fun of a family Thanksgiving: GRANDMA, GRANDPA, COUSINS, UNCLE, AUNT, BROTHER, SISTER, BABY, GUESTS, HUGS, STORIES, TABLE, GAMES and TOGETHER, hidden across, down and diagonally in a 13 by 13 grid. For second graders, or a quiet puzzle to share with a grandparent. Answer key on page 2. It fits second grade, around ages 7 to 8.
Tips for using it
- Pull a three-page packet per child for the short school week: one math page, one word puzzle and one gratitude page at their level.
- Print the answer keys (page 2) once and clip them to a folder so early finishers can check their own work.
- For a mixed-age family table, give every child the same activity at a different level: the picture word search for the five-year-old, the dinner table word search for the nine-year-old.
- Print the place cards and the placemat the evening before; children who color the table decorations feel like hosts.
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.
