Creative Lesson Plan on Adjectives: Adjective Booklet

I found some fun adjective activities on Pinterest, and then i created some of my own, ’cause i roll like that. This post will explain how to create an adjective booklet.

Allison fills our her adjective booklet

In this booklet, your students will define what an adjective is by listing things that adjectives might tell us. I made each student a hot dog booklet before school. On the cover, i wrote: “Adjectives tell us…”

When school started i asked the girls what an adjective is. They both knew that they are descriptive words, thanks to our obsession with Mad Libs. We filled out the booklet, writing the following on separate pages and illustrating each.

1: About a noun – The girls drew a person, place, and thing. For an idea, they drew a thought bubble.

2. What color? – They drew rainbows.

3. What size or shape? – They drew different shapes and measuring cups.

4. How a noun looks – The girls drew a picture of a mirror.

5. How something feels – They drew different textures (i.e. a blanket, a foot on crunchy leaves)

6. How a noun behaves – They drew a clock ticking.
