Memoir Writing Terms word search, scramble and crossword puzzle I made this memoir writing terms puzzle set for my 4th graders during our writing unit. The kids could tell stories from their lives but had no idea what words like memoir, memory, or moment meant when we talked about writing about a specific time in our lives. So I put together a word search, a word scramble, and a crossword using words like memoir, memory, moment, feeling, I, remember, detail, small, big, and true. Nothing fancy — just puzzles to help the memoir writing vocabulary finally stick. The PDF is four pages. Three puzzles plus one answer key page. The word search works well for quiet time after recess or indoor recess. The scramble gets them talking because they argue about whether a memoir has to be about something big or can be about a small moment. The crossword I use for partners or as a review. I added a couple simple book, thought bubble, and star drawings but nothing too busy. Works for 4th through 5th grade. Print and go. Sometimes I have early finishers write one small moment from their life they could turn into a memoir on the back. The kids actually ask for these now.

The Cold War word search, scramble and crossword puzzle I made this Cold War puzzle set for my 5th graders during our modern history unit. The kids had heard the term but had no idea why it was called "cold" or what the Soviet Union was. So I put together a word search, a word scramble, and a crossword using words like Cold War, Soviet Union, United States, communism, democracy, nuclear, missile, space race, arms race, Berlin Wall, spy, conflict, Vietnam, Korea, and fall. Nothing fancy — just puzzles to help the vocabulary finally make sense. The PDF is four pages. Three puzzles plus one answer key page. The word search works well for quiet time after recess. The scramble gets them talking because they argue about why the war was "cold" instead of hot. The crossword I use for partners. I added a couple simple wall and globe drawings but nothing too busy. Works for 5th grade. Print and go. Sometimes I have early finishers write one fact about the space race on the back. The kids actually ask for these now.

Literary Award Vocabulary word search, scramble and crossword puzzle I made this literary award vocabulary puzzle set for my 4th graders during our reading unit. The kids could name some famous book awards but had no idea what words like award, medal, or honor meant when we talked about recognizing great books. So I put together a word search, a word scramble, and a crossword using words like award, medal, honor, Newbery, Caldecott, prize, judge, and winner. Nothing fancy — just puzzles to help the literary award vocabulary finally stick. The PDF is four pages. Three puzzles plus one answer key page. The word search works well for quiet time after recess or indoor recess. The scramble gets them talking because they argue about whether a medal and a prize are the same thing. The crossword I use for partners or as a review. I added a couple simple medal, star, and book drawings but nothing too busy. Works for 4th through 5th grade. Print and go. Sometimes I have early finishers write one award-winning book they have read on the back. The kids actually ask for these now.
