FARM WORD SEARCH

A farm word search you can play in the browser or print for a class, with a full answer key on the second sheet.

Farm animals are the most-taught vocabulary set there is, in any language, and for good reason: every word is a thing a child can picture, name and make a noise for. Cow, pig, hen, goat, sheep — all short, all concrete, all learned before almost anything abstract. That makes the easy level here about as gentle as a word search gets.

The harder level is the working vocabulary of actual farming — SILAGE, PADDOCK, IRRIGATION, GRANARY, FURROW. Words that mean something specific to anybody who has done the job and are near-invisible to everybody else.

HOW TO PLAY

• Tap the first letter, then the last letter. No dragging, which matters on a phone where dragging a diagonal across small letters is inaccurate.
• Across, down or diagonally — never backwards, at either level.
• Either order works. Tapping the last letter first is fine; it's the line that counts.
