You can pepper your child’s day with adjectives to support what they learn on their worksheets, activities, and games. Continuing to talk about adjectives will reinforce grammatical concepts that they learn. Here are several ideas for how to keep adjectives interesting and fun over dinner:

Imagine a place you could travel together. Describe everything you might see there using adjectives. For example, at the beach you would see sparkling ocean, striped umbrellas, and salty air.
Look at a magazine or website picture together. Try to think up as many adjectives as you can to describe the scene or person.
Get out an age appropriate book. Read together and pause every time you come to a noun. Add or replace the adjectives of the story and see how much the story changes.
Pretend to write a review of the dinner you’re eating. Use rare or interesting adjectives to describe everything. For example, the broccoli has a woody aroma and a zesty aftertaste.
Choose one person to speak and ask them to say an interesting adjective. Everyone at the table has to think of something in their day that matches the adjective. For example, if the person says, "funny," you might say, "the person in the lunch line who told a joke."

Bringing adjectives into your everyday life will promote creativity and reinforce that grammar can be fun to learn.

After working hard to learn the grammar of adjectives, step back and review parts of speech with our resources.
