Description

This Describing Pictures Adjectives Worksheet helps first graders learn what an adjective does: it tells about a noun. Six bright pictures give students something real to describe, and a word box gives them six describing words to choose from. Children look at a picture, decide which word tells about it, and write that word on the line underneath. Because the pictures do the explaining, beginning readers can succeed on this sheet without needing to read a single sentence first.

The six pictures were chosen so that exactly one word in the box fits each one. A gold trophy is shiny, a steaming mug of cocoa is hot, an umbrella in the rain is wet, a drum being struck is loud, a garden snail is slow, and a pencil with a fresh point is sharp. Every word gets used one time, so students can cross off each word as they go and use what is left to check their thinking. That built-in self-check is what turns a matching page into real practice with adjectives. Print the Describing Pictures Adjectives Worksheet two pages to a set: page one for the student, page two as the answer key.

What’s Included

  • One printable worksheet page with six picture cards and a writing line in each card
  • A word box with six describing words: hot, loud, sharp, shiny, slow, wet
  • Wide, first-grade-sized writing lines with plenty of room for handwriting
  • A complete answer key page
  • A print-ready PDF you can use at school or at home

Three Reasons This Helps Kids

  • Pictures carry the meaning, so students who are still learning to read can still practice adjectives.
  • Writing the word by hand, instead of circling it, builds spelling and letter formation at the same time.
  • One right answer per picture means students get honest feedback and can correct themselves.

Teacher and Parent Ideas

  • Read the six words aloud together before students begin, and act each one out.
  • After the page is finished, ask students to name a second describing word for each picture out loud.
  • Use the sheet as a warm-up before a writing lesson, then ask students to add one adjective to a sentence they have already written.
  • Send it home as homework: this 1st grade adjectives worksheet needs no preparation beyond printing.
