Rainforests Word Search

Overview:

A word search activity designed to help students review key terms related to rainforests. Designed for middle and upper years students, this activity supports vocabulary building while reinforcing concepts about rainforest ecosystems.

Learning Objectives:

• Recognise and recall important rainforest vocabulary.
• Reinforce understanding of rainforest layers and their unique characteristics.
• Enhance spelling and word recognition skills.

How the Activity Works:

Students search for and highlight or circle words related to rainforests in the grid. The words include terms like "humid," "canopy," "emergent," "forest floor," and "sunlight," which are integral to understanding rainforest environments. As students complete the word search, they are encouraged to discuss the meanings of the terms they find, reinforcing their knowledge of how rainforests function. This activity can be used as an introduction, review, or warm-up exercise for further lessons on rainforests.
