PLEASANT FEELINGS
(30 WORD TO PRACTICE)
About the Topic: Pleasant Feelings
Pleasant feelings are the positive emotions that make our lives brighter and more meaningful. These feelings include happiness, love, peace, satisfaction, excitement, hope, and gratitude. They shape the way we think, behave, and interact with others. When we feel good, our minds open to learning, creativity, and empathy.
People experience pleasant feelings in different ways. For example, listening to music, spending time with friends, or achieving a goal can bring joy. Kindness and gratitude often lead to deeper and more lasting happiness. Understanding and expressing these emotions in English helps learners communicate naturally and connect with others across cultures.
In language learning, it’s important not only to know the words but also to feel their meanings. Describing emotions allows students to express themselves clearly and respond to others with empathy. By expanding emotional vocabulary, students can discuss feelings, write expressive stories, and engage in meaningful conversations.

Benefits of the BoomWords Game
The BoomWords Game brings emotional vocabulary to life. The teacher says “Pleasant Feelings,” and students take turns saying one related word — “happy,” “thankful,” “calm,” “excited,” etc. If a student repeats a word or hesitates too long, they must say “Boom!” and sit down.
This activity encourages students to:
Recall and pronounce advanced emotional words quickly.
Use adjectives and expressions in real time.
Build stronger emotional connections while learning.
Feel more confident speaking about feelings in English and other supported languages.
Teachers can extend the game by asking students to form sentences or short stories using the words, for example: “I felt proud when I finished my project,” or “The sunset made me feel peaceful.”
