Give your kindergarten/reception students a fun way to practise reading words with this set of 55 word searches for beginning readers!

This resource includes three different types of word searches perfect for emergent readers:

• Beginning Sight Words
• CVC Word Families
• Theme Words

The sight word searches use common kindergarten high-frequency words.

The word family searches include short vowel CVC words. These are great to practise decoding or to go along with your lessons on rhyming words.

Finally, the theme word searches have topics and words that young children relate to such as things at the park or the store, colours, and shapes.

These word searches are designed to meet the needs of kindergarteners. They feature:

• large, easy-to-read font
• six words to find per puzzle
• no backward or diagonal words

These are no prep worksheets - just print and use! Perfect for independent work, centres, fast finishers, or to leave with a substitute or relief teacher.

Answer keys are included.
