About this resource
Description
Adjectives are describing words that make writing come alive, and this Adjectives in a Sentence Worksheet helps students see how a single describing word can tell about size, color, shape, feeling, or sound. When children learn to spot and use adjectives, their sentences become clearer, more interesting, and more fun to read. This activity gives second graders focused practice so they can recognize adjectives in sentences and add them to their own writing.
On this printable page, students first circle the adjective in each sentence, then look at a colorful picture and write two of their own sentences using adjectives from a helpful word box. To use it, print the worksheet, read the directions together, and let students work independently or with a partner. The included answer key makes checking quick, and this 2nd grade adjectives worksheet is a great fit for morning work, centers, homework, or review.

Challenge fast finishers to add a second adjective to each sentence or to describe an object in the room. At home, families can play an “I Spy with adjectives” game to keep the practice going.
