Bring vocabulary to life with this engaging, no-prep word search puzzle pack designed for use with Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery. Your students will love reinforcing key terms from every chapter as they follow Anne Shirley’s journey from the Bright River train station all the way to the bend in the road.

This set takes the work off your plate. It’s print-and-go, which means it’s perfect for those days when you need a solid, standards-aligned activity without any prep time. The puzzles naturally pull students back into the world of Avonlea, giving them repeated exposure to character names, settings, and rich vocabulary in a way that feels like a brain break — even though real learning is happening.

What’s Included:

• 12 word search puzzles total — 10 puzzles follow the novel’s chapter groupings (Units 1–10, Chapters 1–38) and 2 cumulative whole-book review puzzles tie everything together at the end
• 15 carefully chosen words per unit puzzle and 20 words per whole-book review puzzle, giving you a substantial vocabulary experience that spans the entire novel
• Word lists blend proper nouns (Anne Shirley, Marilla Cuthbert, Diana Barry, Gilbert Blythe), Tier 2 academic vocabulary (IMAGINATION, INDIGNANT, CATECHISM, OBEDIENT), and key plot and setting terms — so students engage with the novel’s language from multiple angles
• Complete answer keys for every single puzzle — no guessing, no extra work for you, and perfect for self-checking or peer review
• Well-illustrated design with thematic artwork that captures the warmth of Anne’s world on Prince Edward Island
• Available in both full-color and black-and-white versions — the grayscale option is ink-saving and prints beautifully for everyday classroom use
• 48 pages of ready-to-use content

These puzzles slide easily into literacy centers, vocabulary warm-ups, early-finisher activities, morning work, independent reading homework, and substitute teacher plans. They’re also fantastic as an end-of-novel review before a final assessment or essay.

Skills focus on vocabulary acquisition and spelling through visual scanning and word recognition, aligned to CCSS Language Standards L.6.4, L.7.4, L.8.4 (determining and clarifying the meaning of unknown words) and L.6.6, L.7.6, L.8.6 (acquiring and using grade-appropriate academic vocabulary).
