What are Word Searches?

Word searches are exactly what they sound like – a search for words.  They can be found both online, in the newspaper, and in puzzle books. No matter where one decides to search for words, the format is the same.  The searches are made up of letters. They are placed in rows with random letters and words hidden within them. The words can be hidden in any direction – not just horizontally or vertically. Words can be hidden diagonally, forward or backward too. The more challenging word searches place the words you are looking for backwards usually.

The objective of the searches is to find and circle all the hidden words. Word searches are a great tool to use for students as they are fun and educational. They improve cognitive abilities such as pattern recognition and visual perception. Summer word searches for kids is a great way to keep children busy.
