A fall word search with 45 words for the season: the months from September to November, the equinox, falling leaves and foliage, and harvest words like cider, orchard, gourd and corn maze. Warm things are in there too, like flannel, a sweater and a bonfire.
The bonus riddle asks what the tree said when fall came, and the spare letters spell its reply. Words go across, down and diagonally, never backwards, which makes it a fit for grades 3 to 5.
