Questions

Is the School word search free to print?

Yes. Each level has a PDF with the puzzle on page 1 and the answer key and word list on page 2. There is nothing to sign up for. Print as many copies as you need for home or a classroom.

How many words are in the School word search?

The easy puzzle hides 10 words, medium hides 16 and hard hides 22. They are picked from a list of 40 School words, so New puzzle gives you a different mix each time.

What is the longest word on this list?

Playground, at 10 letters. It does not appear in the three puzzles shown above, but New puzzle can pick it, on the levels with room for a word that long.

Which level should I pick?

Easy is a 10 by 10 grid with words that run left to right or top to bottom, which suits ages 6 to 8. Medium is 13 by 13 and adds diagonals. Hard is 16 by 16 with backward words, for older kids and adults.
