In the classroom
The online wordsearch is a fun way to introduce children to road safety issues, in particular those relating to cycling.

The wordsearch can be played online by finding and clicking on the start letter and then clicking the end letter of the identified word. If correct the word will highlight itself and a tick will appear next to the word in the word list (an incorrect choice will have no effect).

For each correctly identified answer there is additional information displayed which explains the issue in a little more details and can act as a discussion prompt if used with larger groups with an interactive whiteboard.
