Week 2 IT 4‘Describing the

What’

•This teacher led activity aims to introduce how adjectives describe nouns. This activity is addressing the ‘What’ from the ‘Who’ ‘Does’ ‘What’, and focuses on how to describe the ‘What’ with more details.

•Sentences illustrating how to describe the ‘What’ more fully are displayed in the presentation and the children have an answer sheet containing the sentences with the choice of 3 adjectives for each sentence, which they either tick or cross depending if they think the word does or does not describe the ‘what’ in the picture.

•The teacher discusses the first 4 slides with the children e.g. ‘Red apple’, where ‘Red’ (describes) the ‘apple’ (what) If the child likes a red apple but only asks for an ‘apple’, they may get a green apple instead, so it is important to describe the ‘what’ carefully with more detail about colour, or size, shape or texture etc. The same with the next example concerning a hat (big/small).•The children are shown that the word before the‘ What’ (noun) describes the ‘What’ in more detail. •The next 2 slides are an answer sheet for each child, to go alongside the IT presentation, and should be printed and distributed to the children before starting. During each slide, a pencil appears which is the cue for the children to tick or cross the word on the sheet, and then to discuss it with the teacher and class, prompted by the ‘why?’ which appears on screen. After this they receive feedback on the screen.

•The child’s task is to tick or cross each word as it appears on screen, according to it’s suitability to describe the ‘what’ in the picture.
