About this resource
Description
Describing words help young readers picture what a poem shows them. This describing who has seen the wind worksheet pairs a classic poem with simple adjective practice, so first graders see how writers use describing words to paint a picture of something they cannot see.
About This Worksheet
Students read the short poem Who Has Seen the Wind? by Christina Rossetti, printed in full in a colored panel beside a crayon-style picture of a tall green tree bending in the wind. Reading the poem aloud builds fluency and an ear for rhythm and repetition. Then students read five short sentences about the windy world of the poem, such as “Green leaves shake in the wind,” find the one describing word in each sentence, and write it on the line.
What’s Included
- The complete poem Who Has Seen the Wind? by Christina Rossetti
- Five find-the-adjective sentences with a writing line for each answer
- A crayon-style picture that connects the poem to the sentences
- An answer key page
Why It Helps Kids
First, reading a real poem out loud builds fluency and shows students that poems can describe things we feel but never see. Second, finding the one describing word in each sentence teaches students to tell an adjective apart from the nouns and verbs around it. Third, writing each adjective on its line gives extra handwriting and spelling practice with common color, size, and weather words.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Use this 1st grade adjectives worksheet during a poetry unit or on a breezy day, and read the poem together twice before students start. Take a short walk outside and let children name describing words for what the wind moves, like tall trees or cool air. At home, families can use the describing who has seen the wind worksheet as a quick lesson, then ask children to write their own sentence about the wind with a describing word.
