Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Locate and circle 8 Spanish Thanksgiving-vocabulary words within a letter grid, per puzzle.

  • Recognize the written form of Spanish vocabulary related to Día de Acción de Gracias, including food terms (pavo, tarta, calabaza) and event terms (reunión, fiesta, agradecer).

Teaching tips

  • Use puzzle 1 and puzzle 2 as two separate sessions since they cover different vocabulary sets rather than the same words repeated.

  • Print the unhighlighted puzzles for students and keep the highlighted pages for checking. Use fresh student copies for a redo.

  • Preview the vocabulary list aloud before starting, since words such as agradecer and reunión are longer and less familiar than common nouns like pavo or pan.

Skills covered

  • Spanish vocabulary recognition — students search a letter grid to locate 8 target words per puzzle drawn from Día de Acción de Gracias themes.

  • Visual searching and spelling — finding each word requires matching its exact letter sequence within the grid, reinforcing spelling.
