A 9 by 9 grid hides ten five senses words on this 3-page kindergarten word search: see, hear, smell, taste, touch, eyes, ears, nose, hand and tongue. Words run across or down only, never on a diagonal or backward. Five words have picture clues under the grid on Page 1 and the other five have clues on Page 2. The answer key shows the grid with every word circled and gives the row and column of each one.
“Read and recognize five senses vocabulary.”
Students look for see, hear, smell, taste, touch, eyes, ears, nose, hand and tongue.
“Find words in a grid by scanning left to right and top to bottom.”
Six words run across and four run down, and none run on a diagonal or backward.
“Match a printed word to a picture.”
Each of the ten words has a picture clue, so students can check the meaning.
A 9 by 9 grid of capital letters. Students find and circle all ten words, reading left to right or top to bottom.
Five small scenes under the grid with the words SEE, HEAR, SMELL, TASTE and TOUCH, such as a child with binoculars and a child smelling a flower.
Pictures of eyes, ears, a nose, a hand and a tongue with the words EYES, EARS, NOSE, HAND and TONGUE. The rest of the page is blank.
The grid with each word circled and a list of where each word starts and which way it runs.
Read the clues first
Go over the ten picture clues aloud before anyone searches. Students who can say the word are much more likely to spot its letters.
Long words first
Suggest that students look for the longest word, tongue, then work down to see. A short word like see is the hardest to spot in a grid.
Partner highlighting
Give each pair a highlighter. One partner reads a word and the other finds it, then they swap. The answer key makes marking quick.
