Worksheet 3 is a synonym activity where children are given a basic adjective and they need to identify 2 alternative synonyms for that adjective. The adjective task cards /flash cards require very little prep once they’ve been cut and laminated. Set A asks learners to choose the adjective to describe the picture and clip it with a mini peg.

The third set of cards asks learners to choose the odd one out. There are 4 adjectives listed to describe each picture but one is a poorer choice. Students need to clip the odd one out, then using their notebook, or lined paper, use the picture and remaining three adjectives to write a sentence with it.

These activities are a fun way to deepen understanding and use of adjectives so that learners aren’t limiting themselves to the same familiar word choices.
