Phonetic Word Searches are like traditional word searches, except the puzzles’ letters have been replaced by phonetic symbols. At the bottom of each puzzle page you will find a list of words pertaining to a particular topic, such as the weather, pets, or shapes. Hidden in the block of phonetic letters in the middle of the page are the phonetic spellings of the words on the list. The spellings can appear horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, and either forwards or backwards. There are also phonetic misspellings of the words hidden in the block which are designed to trick you, so make sure that you circle only the correct spellings of the words as they sound.
