Each file contains five puzzles all related to capital cities of the world. In the word-search puzzle the pupil has to find in the grid all the capital cities listed. There is a printable sheet for the pupil and a solution sheet for the teacher - to make the answers easier to locate I have highlighted the first letter of each city in yellow, or orange when the letter begins two cities running in different directions. In the spiral puzzles the pupils will be asked to enter the capital city for each country listed, with the last letter of each answer forming the first letter of the next. Again I have included solution sheets for the teacher. There are two versions of each, one in PDF and the second an Excel file, whichever is your preference.
