Emotions Word Search, free printable PDF preview

NOSTALGIA was once a diagnosis. Army doctors listed it as an illness, a homesickness so severe that soldiers were said to waste away from it. The words we use for feelings carry that kind of history. GRIEF, AWE, LONGING, REMORSE. The grid holds the harder half of the emotional range.

Print it as a emotions word search or a emotions word find. The sheet does not change, only the label does.

Frequently asked questions

How is dread different from fear?

Fear has an object in front of it. Dread is the same weight with nothing yet to point at, which is often worse.

Is this list aimed at adults?

The vocabulary is more nuanced than a basic feelings chart, so it suits older students and adults rather than young children.
