Ideas for this theme

Some pasta names are easy to picture; others are easier to recognize on a menu. Look at a few labeled shapes, then find their names in the word search. The longer spellings make this a good list to keep beside a scramble sheet.

  • Use pictures to sort a few names into long pasta, short shapes and filled pasta.
  • Look for repeated endings such as -ini and -oni, then check the whole name in the list.
