Black History Month word search, scramble and crossword puzzle I made this Black History Month puzzle set for my 3rd and 4th graders during our February unit.

The kids could identify coins but had no idea how to count mixed groups or what words like penny, nickel, dime, or quarter meant when we talked about their values. So I put together a word search, a word scramble, and a crossword using words like penny, nickel, dime, quarter, cent, value, count, total, and dollar. Nothing fancy — just puzzles to help the money 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 dime is worth more than a nickel even though it's smaller. The crossword I use for partners or as a review. I added a couple simple penny, nickel, dime, and quarter drawings but nothing too busy. Works for 1st through 3rd grade. Print and go. Sometimes I have early finishers draw three ways to make 25 cents on the back. The kids actually ask for these now.

The American Revolution word search, scramble and crossword puzzle I made this American Revolution puzzle set for my 4th graders during our social studies unit. The kids knew the war happened but had no idea who fought who or what words like patriot, loyalist, or militia meant. So I put together a word search, a word scramble, and a crossword using words like patriot, loyalist, militia, Continental Army, British Army, George Washington, redcoat, minuteman, battle, independence, Declaration, victory, Yorktown, treaty, and freedom. Nothing fancy — just puzzles to help the key vocabulary finally click. 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 whether George Washington was a general or a president first. The crossword I use for partners. I added a couple simple drum and hat drawings but nothing too busy. Works for 4th through 5th grade. Print and go. Sometimes I have early finishers write one fact about a patriot on the back. The kids actually ask for these now.
