National Minority Health Month Word Search - Classroom Activity

I made this word search for my health class last April to recognize National Minority Health Month. It's a simple 2-page PDF with 24 important health terms that highlight minority health awareness - words like "equity," "access," and "wellness" hidden in the puzzle.

The words range from basic ("clinic") to more advanced ("epidemiology") so it works for different grade levels. I used it with my middle schoolers during our public health unit, and they enjoyed finding words while we discussed health disparities.

What you get:
• Page 1: The word search with clear, easy-to-read letters
• Page 2: Answer key for quick checking

I've used this when:

• Introducing health equity topics

• Supplementing our community health lessons

• Observing National Minority Health Month

The words reflect real health concepts we discuss - "prevention," "advocacy," "cultural" - not just random terms. Last year, finding the word "barriers" led to a great class discussion about healthcare access.

Format: Basic PDF (2 pages)
Teacher Tip: Have students circle 3 words they think are most important for community health!
