Adding Descriptive Details

Adjectives are words that describe nouns and pronouns. They set a mood and add interest to writing. Learners discover how adjectives can bring writing to life in this fill-in-the-blanks writing activity. Children will look at each of three short passages, then use the word bank below each to add descriptive detail to what they have just read. Designed for third graders, this worksheet helps build vocabulary and develop students' understanding of parts of speech. For more adjectives practice, try Adding Details with Adjectives.
