I Got home from camping last spring.Saw people, places and things.We barely had arrived, Friends asked us to describeThe people, places and every last thing.So we unpacked our adjectives.

UNPACK YOUR ADJECTIVES

I unpacked "frustrating" first.Reached in and found the word "worst".Then I picked "soggy" andNext I picked "foggy" andThen I was ready to tell them my tale.'Cause I'd unpacked my adjectives.

Adjectives are words you use to really describe things,Handy words to carry around.Days are sunny or they're rainyBoys are dumb or else they're brainyAdjectives can show you which way.

MJH_teacher

Adjectives are often used to help us compare things,To say how thin, how fat, how short, how tall.Girls who are tall can get taller,Boys who are small can get smaller,Till one is the tallestAnd the other's the smallest of all.

We hiked along without care.Then we ran into a bear.He was a hairy bear,He was a scary bear,We beat a quick retreat from his lair.And described him with adjectives.

Whoah! Boy, that was one big, ugly bear! Lair =homeRetreat= move back

Tip:

You can even make adjectives out of the other parts of speech, like verbs or nouns.

All you have to do is take an ending, like "ic“ or "ish" or "ary".

For example, this boy can grow up to be a hugeman, but still have a boyish face. "Boy" is a noun, but the ending "ish" makes it an adjective. "Boyish": that describes the hugeman's face. Get it?)
