About this resource
Description
This Louisiana word search worksheet takes 3rd grade students on a fun trip to the Pelican State. Children hunt for six key Louisiana words in a letter puzzle, then use those same words to finish sentences about the state bird, the state tree, jazz music and more, so every word they find comes with a real fact about Louisiana.
In Part A, students find and circle the six box words: bayou, crawfish, cypress, Gulf, jazz and pelican. In Part B, they read six short clues and write the matching Louisiana word on each line. The clues teach that the brown pelican is the state bird, the bald cypress is the state tree, jazz began in New Orleans, a bayou is a slow and muddy stream, and crawfish are a favorite food. Use this Louisiana word search worksheet during a states unit, in a social studies center or as a quick homework page.
What’s Included
- An 11 by 11 Louisiana word search puzzle
- A six-word word bank
- Six fill-in-the-blank Louisiana fact sentences
- An answer key with every word circled and every blank filled in
Why It Helps Kids
First, searching the grid builds careful scanning and spelling skills. Second, the fill-in sentences turn each vocabulary word into a real state fact, which helps the information stick. Third, this states word search for 3rd grade gives children a playful way to practice reading for meaning in social studies.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Pull up a map and have students find Louisiana, the Gulf and the Mississippi River before they start. After the sheet is done, let each child pick one fact and draw a picture of it, or play a short jazz song and talk about where the music began.
