Find these words
Ten words map an entire school day, from the physical objects in a desk (BOOK, ERASER) to the people in the room (TEACHER, PUPIL) to the subjects and routines that fill the schedule (LESSON, LUNCH, READING, SCIENCE, MATH). PUPIL is worth pointing out before the hunt starts, since most American students say "student" and may not recognize the word on sight. GRADE does double duty in this list too — it can mean a grade level or a score on an assignment — which makes for a quick vocabulary discussion once it's found. Between the classroom objects, the people, and the subjects, this puzzle touches nearly every part of a typical school routine.
PUPIL and GRADE each carry a second meaning worth unpacking, making this puzzle a natural vocabulary detour during the first week of school.
