Kwanzaa Word Scramble

Kwanzaa Word Scramble

This Kwanzaa word scramble is a fun way to explore the traditions and special meaning behind this weeklong celebration. Kwanzaa takes place from December 26 through January 1 and focuses on family, community, culture, and the seven guiding principles known as the Nguzo Saba. There's quite a bit to learn about this holiday, from the lighting of the candles on the kinara to the meaning behind the different colors and symbols. I wanted to bring some of that vocabulary together in a puzzle that gives students a chance to learn while having a little fun. Each word is mixed up, and the challenge is to figure out the correct spelling and write the answer in the spaces provided. This printable is a nice addition to a December classroom activity, homeschool lesson, or holiday-themed puzzle collection. It's a simple way to introduce Kwanzaa vocabulary and encourage a little curiosity about the celebration.
