A Search for Spring Nouns and Adjectives

Introduction

• Review the definitions of adjectives and nouns with your students.
• Explain that an adjective is a word that describes a noun. Adjectives describe nouns by giving information, such as the noun's size, shape, age, color, appearance, and texture. A noun is a word that names a person, place, or thing. A noun describes who or what.
• Tell students that in honor of the spring season, we will practice identifying nouns and adjectives in Easter-themed sentences.
• Tell students that Easter is a holiday that some people celebrate during the springtime. Ask students to share what they know about Easter.
