Free Printable Back to School Word Search
Made for the first week of term: classroom supplies (CRAYON, PROTRACTOR, STAPLER, HIGHLIGHTER) and school routines (ATTENDANCE, RECESS, DETENTION, SEMESTER) in one list. Answer key included, and New puzzle lays out a different grid from the same 70 words every time.
Free and unlimited, no account. Press “New puzzle” for a different grid from the same 70 words.
How the back to school words fit each size
Every one of the 70 back to school words is short enough for the 11 × 11 easy grid, so easy, medium (15 × 15) and hard (19 × 19) all draw on the full list.
22 words have five letters or fewer, ART, BUS and GYM among them, and those are the first ones young solvers spot. The longest, HIGHLIGHTER, ASSIGNMENT and ATTENDANCE, are the last to be found.
A way to use the back to school word search
Use it as a first-morning activity while you take attendance. The same words then double as labels for a tour of where the supplies live in your room.

Printing and the answer key
Print hides the controls; the PNG is rendered at 3× so letters stay crisp, and the answer key saves under its own filename. Need a whole book of these at KDP trim? KDP Creator builds the pages.
