How to use this list

December lessons are short and noisy. A five-minute filler that still uses real seasonal vocabulary beats a worksheet that needs explaining first.

Pair it with a 15 × 15 grid for a five-minute filler, or a 20 × 20 for a full lesson starter. Every puzzle prints on one A4 or Letter sheet, with the answer key on the page behind it.

Questions

How many words are on this list?

48 words. They are listed in the order the source list uses, not alphabetically, so you can work through them a level at a time.

Can I print this list as it is?

Yes — select the text, or use your browser’s print command. If you want the words in a puzzle instead, the button above loads the first 16 of them into the generator, where you can paste the rest.

What grid size fits these words?

A 15 × 15 grid takes the whole list comfortably; the longest word here is FRANKINCENSE (12 letters). Bigger grids (20 × 20) suit fast finishers.
