Can puzzles be used as assessment tools? Word search puzzles, like this end word family brain teaser, are a perfect example of using puzzles as an assessment tool. To solve the puzzle students need to solve for each clue and then locate the answer hidden in the grid. Have students record the answer prior to locating the word in the grid.
Because the clues draw upon other aspects of learning, like knowledge of words: synonym, plural, past tense, present tense, Educators can identify learning gaps which help to inform their instruction.
