Kick-off Your Fire Safety Lesson with a Fire Safety Word Find
Kick off your personal safety lessons with a fun Word Search! This fire safety printable is a fantastic way to familiarise your students with fire safety vocabulary and get them ready for learning about fire prevention.
Encourage them to search high and low for the words in each puzzle, as they learn about ways to stay safe in house fires. This word search activity is designed for our upper years students and includes sixteen fire safety-related terms to search for in the 14 x 14 letter grid. Words are hidden vertically, horizontally, diagonally, and in reverse order for an extra challenge!
An answer key is included with your download to make grading fast and easy!
Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding
In addition to independent student work time, use this worksheet as an activity for:
- Lesson warm-up
- Lesson wrap-up
- Fast finishers
🚀Engage your fast finishers by providing them with a blank grid to create their own fire safety prevention worksheet.
🆘Differentiate for your struggling readers and writers by providing them with the nearly identical primary version of the Fire Safety word search. It provides a shorter word list and does not include words hidden on the diagonal or in reverse order.
