Adjectives in LA

The sixth graders have moved from nouns onto the words that modify them.

Adjecives modify nouns or pronouns.

We are concentrating on the adjectives that answer these questions: How many?, What kind?, and Which one?.

Here are some examples of adjectives that can answer each question. Try putting the noun "dog or dogs" after each of these adjectives.

How Many?: five, many, few, several, no

What kind?: purple, tall, wonderful, exciting, ugly, honest

Which one?: this, that, these, those, other
