What you need

  • Any printer (black & white)
  • 2 sheets of paper
  • A pencil

Eighteen ocean words in a 15 × 15 grid: shark, whale, octopus, seahorse, jellyfish, coral and the rest. Pitched at children aged about 6 to 9, with words running across, down and diagonally but never backwards. It goes well with a sea creatures topic, an aquarium visit or a beach holiday.

What’s in the PDF

  • Page 1: the 15 × 15 grid (words run across, down and diagonally, never backwards) and the list of 18 words to find.
  • Page 2: the answer key, with every word highlighted.
  • Black and white, US Letter with 18 mm margins, so it also prints on A4 at 100 % scale.

Tip: Look for the double letters: jellyfish, seaweed and eel all have a pair that stands out when you scan the grid line by line.
