About this resource

Extend literacy skills with this Lunar New Year-themed wordsearch designed for Year 4 pupils. Perfect for SPaG lessons, early finishers, revision, or homework, this activity supports spelling accuracy, vocabulary development, and contextual understanding. While the words are the same as in the Year 3 version, the grid is larger and more challenging: words may appear horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, and can be placed forwards or backwards, making it ideal for Year 4 learners or those working at greater depth in Year 3. This engaging wordsearch encourages children to concentrate, recognise patterns, and read carefully, reinforcing spelling in a meaningful, seasonal context. Teachers can use it to introduce cultural vocabulary related to Lunar New Year while providing a motivating independent activity. Suitable for classroom tasks, homework, or enrichment sessions, it combines cultural awareness with literacy practice, offering a fun and educational challenge for Key Stage 2 pupils.Read more
