This find-a-word helps students to improve the sophistication of their written responses. Rather than repeatedly referring in basic terms to what is "seen" or "shown" in a text, this worksheet provides them with 20 verbs such as "illustrates", "highlights" and "establishes". This quick, simple change can really boost the overall "vibe" of an essay.
