Free Thanksgiving Wordsearch

About this resource

Need one Thanksgiving activity that prints and goes? This free word search gives K-2 students three grids of Thanksgiving words to find, circle and write: a 4 x 4, a 5 x 5 and a 6 x 6. Each puzzle has a line under it to copy each word on. There is a practice page that shows how to find a word, and an answer key so you can check the work. Pencil work only. Nothing on a student page is cut.

WHAT IS INCLUDED - 9 pages, 4 of them for students

What This Is, And What It Is Not

This is a print PDF with 9 pages and no type-in fields. Print the pages, or make copies for your class, and the student works with a pencil. It is not a slide deck or a word-processor file. The words are everyday Thanksgiving words typed into this file, and nothing here claims they match any program's word list. There is no clip art.

Who This Is For

K-2 teachers, special education teachers and paraprofessionals who need a Thanksgiving activity a child can do alone or with a little help: for centers, for early finishers, or for a week when the schedule runs short.
