A grid that runs through the professions keeping a town going, from care and building trades to the kitchen and the stage.

Each title is a single word and points to work you can observe around you. The list gets students talking about what people on their street, in their family or at school actually do all day, and about how some trades have changed over time.

If you want an easy jobs word search, start at the easy level, where words only read left to right or top to bottom. Medium adds diagonals, and hard also lets words run backward. Sizes go from 8×8 to 20×20, and every grid is generated and then checked by software, with a free printable answer key.

The words in this theme

With the French translation, or a short definition: handy for French immersion or a bilingual class.

Suggested school level

Grades 1-4 (ages 6-10): easy 8×8 or 10×10; grades 5-6 move to medium.

Classroom activity idea

After the puzzle, each student draws the tool or uniform of one job from the list without writing its name. Display the drawings on the wall and let the group match each to the right word. To go further, interview an adult at your school about their path and training.

Classroom use is allowed: print as many copies as your students need, free of charge, with no sign-up.

Hunt for the longest titles first, especially those ending in -ER, -OR or -IAN; their endings give you a clear letter pattern to follow.
