Writing down three good things a day for a week measurably lifts mood, and the effect lasts for months. That is the whole reason a gratitude JOURNAL shows up in so many classrooms now. This word puzzle is the vocabulary that goes with it: to NOTICE, to APPRECIATE, to stay HUMBLE and CONTENT, to be GENEROUS back. Eleven words, none of them hard, all of them THANKFUL for a quiet ten minutes.
Frequently asked questions
When is this gratitude word search used?
Thanksgiving week most often, but counselors use it any time: the first day back from a break, or the week a class needs to reset. It has no holiday words on purpose.
What is the difference between GRACE and gratitude?
Grace is something given without being earned; gratitude is the response to it. In the grid they sit near each other, and in a discussion they make a good pair.
