FAQ
Can I include specific Labor Day vocabulary words like CARPENTER or JOB in my puzzle?
Yes, you can customize the word list to match your lesson goals. Simply type your chosen words into the generator box. The tool accepts up to thirty terms at a time.

How do I print this labor day word search?
Click Download PDF and print the file at 100% scale (no “fit to page” needed, it is already sized for US Letter with printer-safe margins). Every download includes an answer key page you can keep or skip when printing.
Can I solve it online without printing?
Yes. Hit Solve online above the preview and drag across a word to mark it; found words get highlighted and counted. Works with a finger on tablets, ideal for early finishers at the classroom computer.
What is the best way to use the different difficulty levels for a mixed-grade group?
Select the Easy setting for younger students so they only search for words across and down. For older students, choose the Hard setting to include all eight directions. This keeps the activity challenging for everyone. You can print a different PDF for each group or let them play the online version on individual tablets.
Can I make multiple different versions for my class?
Yes. Turn on “5 versions” to get five different puzzles with the same words in one PDF, each with its own answer key. Handy for keeping neighbouring desks honest.
Where can I make a word search with my own words for free?
On this page: switch the panel to My own words, type or paste up to 30 words, give it a title like Week 12 Spelling, and download the PDF. It is free, requires no account, and the puzzle regenerates if you want a different layout of the same words.
