Colourful Semantics adverbs, adjectives, conjunctions and negatives growing pack!
This growing bundle has everything you need to move on to stages 5-8 of the colourful semantics programme.
What’s included in this pack?
15 conjunction cards (coordinating and subordinating)
18 modal verb cards, including negatives
54 adjective cards
9 preposition cards
36 adverb and fronted adverbial cards
Level 5 Adjectives: The purple ‘describe’ cards are the adjectives in a sentence. An adjective is a describing word. The ‘describe’ card can be placed at different points to describe different words in the sentence. Various strips are included.
Level 6 Adverbs:
Adverbs are words that change verbs, adjectives and other adverbs. They can modify (or change) a verb by making it more precise. This pack includes adverbs, fronted adverbials and prepositions.
Level 7 Conjunctions:
Conjunctions are used to join two clauses or expand an idea. This pack contains both coordinating and subordinating conjunctions.
Level 8 Negatives:
This pack includes modal verbs to show how possible something is, or how likely it is to happen/have happened. The cards help children learn how to indicate degrees of possibility and how to use them correctly in language.
The cards can also be used to help children learn to form questions by inversion. For example:
Statement = She can go to the park.
Question = Can she go to the park?
These cards are designed to be used in conjunction with the Colourful Semantics starter pack (stages 1-4), which can be purchased here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/colourful-semantics-starter-pack-12121851
I update the packs regularly as I use them in my own classroom. You will be notified of any updates as they become available.

Students have to sort the words into the categories of nouns, adjectives, verbs and adverbs using a key and then write their own sentences. Used for KS3 SEN.
The worksheets in this workbook will give students a solid introduction to adjectives and adverbs and the confidence to use them in their own writing. (23 pages)
Lots of adjective cards, which can be used in a number of ways. I have used these to teach children to apply the spelling rules of turning adjectives into adverbs. Can be made into cards or shrunk to make a worksheet. Can be broken into sets to teach spelling rules individually.
This resource includes a comprehensive teacher Notebook which introduces the fact that adjectives modify nouns whereas adverbs can modify verbs, adjectives or other adverbs. It then goes on to introduce the fact that some words can act as both an adjective and an adverb depending on the word they are modifying in the sentence. The children are given the opportunity to write their own sentences applying this knowledge before taking part in a challenge activity to see whether they can identify whether words are functioning as adjectives or adverbs.
