Product description

From the author

Adjectives Color Size Shape Worksheet helps early elementary students practice using descriptive words. Students look at images of familiar items such as a pencil, apple or book and write adjectives about the color, size, and shape of each picture. Teachers can use this resource for whole-class instruction, small group work, or as a homework assignment to give students repeated practice using adjective vocabulary properly. With nine picture prompts, this grammar worksheet encourages grade 1-3 students to strengthen descriptive writing abilities. Rather than fill-in-the-blank exercises, students independently generate lists of accurate adjectives. The printable PDF worksheet fosters improvement of descriptive details in student writing.
