There's A SMARTer Way To Make Word Searches Engaging For Students.
Have you tried a word search to improve reading fluency? Word searches are a great way to engage students when learning new vocabulary or studying a new topic. They are also an excellent strategy for improving students' reading skills like scanning, decoding, and word recognition, which are vital components of reading fluency. Plus, let's face it…
It's Fun For Students!
But students today are tuned in to a world of technology. They expect everything that they come across to be engaging for them to absorb information. Most word search creators are designed to create puzzles that can be distributed on paper and not very engaging. While others may provide a more appealing option but fall short because they don't offer a way to easily share the word search with students or be embedded into your lesson delivery tool.
