First Word Search: Phonics Word Search

These word searches are just right for the youngest readers! Specially designed to meet the needs and interests of children starting to read on their own, the "First Word Search" series turns learning into an entertaining game. While they're playing, children will master more and more new words and sounds; they can bring that new knowledge to books and to school. "Phonics Word Search" goes through such letter patterns as ai (braid, stain, trait); bl (blab, bleak, blizzard); the long ea (eager, peanut) and many others. Each search has a word list, so if the child isn't yet familiar with the vocabulary, he or she can still look for it in the grid - and then find out what it means.
