Picture Crossword with Weather — Grade 2

This Grade 2 picture crossword worksheet hides a grid of weather words behind picture clues. The child names each picture and spells its word into the crossing squares. Where two words meet they must share the same letter — so a misspelling will not fit, and the puzzle nudges a child to spell carefully. That self-checking spelling practice is exactly the L.2.2.d skill second grade builds.

Spelling words correctly is a core second-grade skill, and L.2.2.d asks children to generalize the spelling patterns they have learned to write words on their own. A crossword makes that practice self-checking: where two words cross they share a letter, so a misspelling simply will not fit. Spelling weather words into the grid turns careful spelling into a satisfying puzzle.

Children enjoy the click of a crossword fitting together, and a clean grid is a satisfying proof of careful spelling.
