• Handout 1, Scrambled Word Puzzle, and pencils

• Copy the handout for all participants.

Give a copy of the scrambled word puzzle and a pencil to each participant as they arrive. Encourage children to decipher as many words as they can from the scrambled words. Do the words have a message they recognize?

If any participants might have trouble unscrambling words on their own or writing down the words they find, group participants into teams of two or three to work on the puzzle together, inviting teams to choose one person to list the words the group finds.
