Below is a text and a sample crossword puzzle my students solved before creating their own puzzles. Following the sample crossword puzzle is the blank crossword puzzle form I gave the students to use. The Seashore Two-thirds of the earth is covered with water. The unique area where the sea and land meet is called the seashore or sometimes the shore. Along the seashore live a variety of plants and animals.
Every shore is different and each shore is constantly changing.
If you go to a beach at the same time for two days, you will see different animals and plants in different places. The waves will be different. Each day, you will see different objects, moved by the power of the sea. If you stay at a seashore, you will notice the sea coming up to the land or moving away from the land. This movement is called the tide.
