• 12 word search puzzles total — 10 chapter-by-chapter puzzles covering all 16 chapters (grouped into 10 manageable units) plus 2 whole-book review puzzles
• 20 words per review puzzle for cumulative reinforcement; chapter puzzles feature a rich blend of Tier 2 academic vocabulary (composure, reconcile, dilemma, prejudice) and Tier 3 domain-specific terms (molting, instars, chrysalis, membrane)
• Answer keys for every puzzle
• Clean, well-illustrated design with thematic artwork
• Available in full-color and ink-saving black & white versions

These puzzles work beautifully for literacy centers, morning work, early-finisher activities, homework packets, sub plans, or end-of-chapter reviews. They’re flexible enough for whole-group practice or independent work, and they give your students a low-pressure way to revisit important words from the novel.
