Learning about Adjectives

The Yr 2.2 students of Ms Stephanie had an interesting lesson about adjectives, also referred to as describing words. The teacher introduced the lesson by showing the students a book about Simpi, the elephant. Students were asked to describe the elephant and to find the adjectives on a presentation.

The lesson continued with a set of games and activities where students had to match the words to the correct adjective using Bee-Bot, worked interactive games on the computer, matched flash cards to pictures and also wrote sentences to describe objects. These hands-on sessions allowed students to learn by thinking and sharing.

During an English grammar lesson children were divided into groups of four. As a team they had to come up with different adjectives that best describe the picture. Then they had to write down the adjectives. Afterwards children played the flash card game. Here children had to join the best adjective with each noun and they also had to think of other adjectives. After they had to write them down on their flash card.
