About this word search
Feelings often come in mixtures, and this list has room for that. A child can be Proud and Nervous on the first day of school, or Disappointed and Relieved when a game is cancelled. Talking about two feelings at once is a useful step for children in the early grades.
In this grid, words lie flat, stand upright or run diagonally, all reading forwards. In love is written without a space. Shy and Sad are short, so look for them last.
At circle time, each child can pick a word and describe a moment when they felt that way, or act it out for the others to guess.
