Awesome Adjectives!
Adjectives are always so much fun! There are just so many activities you can do,
we could easily spend a month on adjectives!
Here are a few of the activities we used to learn and reinforce
adjectives in our classroom….
Adjective Detectives
The students had to be adjective detectives and look through
the story to find as many adjectives as they could. They were each given a magnifying glass to
help with their detective skills. Here
are some pictures of our detectives at work…
Appetizing
Adjectives!
As you can tell food is a reoccurring theme in our
classroom! We love to incorporate it any
way possible, and using food to teach adjectives couldn’t be any more
perfect! We made posters with different
foods, and had the students brainstorm adjectives to describe each one. We told them to use all five of their senses
to describe the foods. How do they look,
taste, smell, sound, and feel?
We gave them little samples of each food to get their
thoughts going (unless you have food allergies in your classroom and then you
might have to refrain from the sampling or change your foods up). We used chocolate chip cookies, brownies,
potato chips, popcorn and lemonade. Here
are some examples of our posters. We
also laminated chocolate chips to record their adjectives for the chocolate
chip cookies, popcorn kernels for the popcorn, lemons for the lemonade, potato chips, etc….
