How it helps

A word search asks you to scan a grid row by row and column by column. It is the same steady eye movement that keeps you on the right line when you read.

Start with 10 words and 4 ways, and move up as your times drop. Gains tend to stay close to the game itself. Play one puzzle as a short warm-up before reading.
