June Word Search Puzzle Packet

In the monthly Word Search Packets, I offer 10 different themed word searches pertaining to the particular month. For example, the month of June has summer-themed puzzles such as Father’s Day, going fishing, on a picnic, and more.

You can print them all at once and make the searches into a booklet, or choose to use them 1 at the time.

In addition to boredom busters during the summer, they’re terrific for practicing spelling and vocabulary related to June-themed topics.

Each word in the search can be found horizontally, vertically, or diagonally from left to right.

♥ Also note that the pages are not dated in any way, so you should be able to use them year after year.

In the June Word Search Packet, you’ll find the following topics:

★ At the Pool – A day at the pool with all the things you will see and feel

★ Father’s Day – Celebrated the third Sunday of June each year

★ D-Day – The largest seaborne invasion in history that occurred on June 6, 1944 during World War II

★ Flag Day – The adoption of the U.S. flag is celebrated each year on June 14th

★ Summer Solstice – Occurs in the northern hemisphere each year in June

Also includes an answer key.

Why Word Search Puzzles for Kids?

Are word searches just busy work for kids? I say absolutely not!

Yes, they are fun pages, but word searches can be packed with learning.

Here are a few suggestions:

• These word searches are grouped by theme. Choose a ‘theme for the day’ or have a ‘Fun Friday Theme’ each week. Talk about the theme – read a book, watch an educational You Tube video, and go over each vocabulary word. Ensure your children know what each word means and can use it appropriately in a sentence.
• Do your students need phonics help? Choose a few words from the word bank in the puzzle and focus on a particular phonics concept. For example, choose to work on vowel teams, silent letters (such as a silent k or g), consonant blends, tricky spelling concepts, or types of syllables. The opportunities for phonics mastery are endless here.

• Use this as a brainstorming activity. After reviewing the vocabulary words together on your chosen puzzle page, brainstorm other words that could be included. Make a list on the board and add to it throughout the day or week.
• Need penmanship practice? Have your child write the vocabulary words – in print or cursive – in their best penmanship.
  
  ➡️ Need more handwriting resources? Hop over to my handwriting and copywork section to find a variety of helps.
