INGLÉS ESL NUMBERS 0-10 WORD SEARCHES

ESL EFL ENGLISH NUMBERS 0-10 for Spanish-speaking learners of English. Word searches are a fabulous way of encouraging learners to engage with the written word in English, refreshing and reinforcing language as they complete the grids. This set features ten differentiated word searches, focusing on Numbers 0-10 in English, with each consecutive grid increasing in challenge.

There are 6 English to English grids, labelled with Big Ben, where learners are prompted with the English words, and look for them in English in the grid. For additional vocab consolidation, Grids 1-4 also feature a Spanish word list that learners have to complete, as extra practice for saying and writing the numbers together — this works really well for embedding language. Grids 5 & 6 require learners to work out what the numbers are in* English,* and write them out again in English, for additional spelling practice. There are also 4 Spanish to English grids, labelled with the Spanish flag, where the prompt words are given in Spanish, and learners have to find the English equivalent in the grid. For additional consolidation and practice in writing and spelling in English, they also complete the English word list on each page.

Learners can tell in which direction the words are written by looking at the arrow key on each grid. There is an answer grid for each word search, so that learners can check their answers - or use for a little extra help if they need it! The word searches are in landscape format, as this mirrors a common direction of reading from left to right in both English and Spanish, facilitating learner engagement with the activity. There is a single grid per page, as younger learners of English as a second / subsequent or foreign language are still developing literacy skills in their first language - I’ve found too that older beginner learners benefit from very clear and accessible worksheets, definitely avoiding too much text on a single page.

Use for sub lessons, as starters, refreshers, plenaries or fun-time fillers at any time during the school year, as well as when you’re introducing Numbers 0-10 in English.
