Name word search

Generate a word search hiding every first name in your class in a few clicks, ready to print as an A4 PDF.

What's on the page

  • an instruction at the top, written by you
  • the letter grid, which grows on its own so no name is ever left out
  • the list of names to find
  • an optional Name / First name / Date header and footer

You stay in control

  • 3 difficulty levels: easy (→ ↓), medium (with diagonals), hard (all directions)
  • an answer key page for the teacher, with the names highlighted
  • list names in capitals or not, with or without accents

A great activity to practise name recognition and finding your way around a grid, from kindergarten to 2nd grade.
