Year 2 Word Search Fun!
Word searches for children are available in a variety of themes and age-appropriate versions, which means that there is a word search out there for every type of child. Each word search features a list of words, some of which a child will be familiar with, and some of which will be new. The more a child encounters new words, the bigger his or her vocabulary will grow.
The following are the benefits of a word search:
- Provide hours of fun
- Improves vocabulary
- Improves spelling skills
- Can enhance productivity
- Provide a way for adults and children to bond
- Offers an appropriate way for children to socialize
- Develops problem-solving and pattern-recognition skills
- Nurtures an attitude of persistence
- Provide effective stress relief and working memory
This week our Year 2’s had some fun doing a word search activity in their Science class. For Science this term we have been looking at Light and Dark Sources. We find that this kind of activity is a fun way to learn and also revise what we have learnt as well.
