Adjective Activities

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….

100th Day!

100^th Day!

Can you even believe it’s already past the 100^th day mark of the school year!  This year is just flying by! 

Pinterest has really become our favorite go to for every theme, holiday and party!  The ideas are endless!  This year we sent home a letter with each student asking them to dress like they are 100 years old for the 100^th day of school, and some of the outfits they showed up in were priceless!  We participated too, and they got some laughs seeing us dressed up as old ladies!  Here we are with Courtney and Jodie from across the hall…

I think Courtney definitely got best dressed, the walker was a nice touch!  Jody walked around with toilet paper hanging off her shoe and a dryer sheet stuck to her back the whole day…does it get any better than that??

Here are some of our students, lookin’ good for 100 right??

Their desks were all ready for them when they arrived, 100 days smarter! 

Here is another activity where they had to draw what they thought they would look like when they were 100 and fill in the sentences with words of their choice.  They turned out really cute….

Did you do anything fun to celebrate the 100th day?
