About this resource
Description
Adjectives are the words that make writing come alive, and silly monsters make them easy to remember. This monsters an adjectivity adjectives activity helps 1st and 2nd grade children sort describing words and then use them to tell about four friendly monsters.
Children lay out three header cards, Color, Pattern and Number, and sort twelve adjective cards under them. Then they pick a monster card and find the three words that describe it: its color, its pattern and how many eyes it has. Every monster is different in all three ways, so each one has exactly one set of matching words. Children write their answers on the recording sheet and finish with a sentence of their own.
What’s Included
- A colorful cover page and a How to Use page
- 3 header cards and 12 adjective word cards on 2 sheets
- 4 monster picture cards
- A recording sheet with a write-a-sentence task
- A 1st grade practice worksheet: circle the word that tells about it
- Answer keys for the sort, the recording sheet and the practice page
Why This Activity Helps Kids
- Sorting words into groups shows children that adjectives tell what kind and how many.
- Describing a picture turns a grammar rule into real speaking and writing practice.
- Friendly monsters keep young learners laughing and engaged the whole time.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Play a guessing game: describe one monster with two adjectives and have children point to it. Invite children to draw a new monster and label it with three describing words. This 1st grade adjectives activity fits a literacy center or small group, and the monsters an adjectivity adjectives activity is a fun review any time of year. Keep the cards in a bag so children can play again and again.
