About this resource
Description
This Montana word search worksheet takes 3rd grade students on a fun trip to the Treasure State. Children hunt for six key Montana words in a letter puzzle, then use those same words to finish sentences about the state capital, the state animal, the state gem and more, so every word they find comes with a real fact about Montana.
In Part A, students find and circle the six box words: Glacier, grizzly, Helena, pine, sapphire and Treasure. In Part B, they read six short clues and write the matching Montana word on each line. The clues teach that Helena is the capital, the grizzly bear is the state animal, the sapphire is the state gem, the ponderosa pine is the state tree and Glacier National Park is a famous landmark. Use this Montana 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 Montana word search puzzle
- A six-word word bank
- Six fill-in-the-blank Montana 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 Montana and its capital before they start. After the sheet is done, let each child pick one fact and draw a picture of it, or compare Montana with a neighboring state using the related word searches below.
