Crosswords

4 crosswords with elementary level vocabulary (animals, colors, countries, and drinks)

I made these last year when classes unexpectedly shut down early, and I had a ton of desk warming time.
Can be used as a warm-up, busy work during speaking tests or for kids who finish activities early, or extra credit.
The hints are all in Japanese, and the vocabulary should be in the Elementary school textbook so students can do this activity on their own.
