About this worksheet
Ten everyday sentences, each with one adjective in it: a green frog on a log, warm soup for lunch, a giant pancake, striped socks for school. The child underlines the adjective and circles the noun it describes, and a worked example at the top shows exactly what that looks like.
Finding the noun is what moves this past a simple word hunt. It makes the job of an adjective visible, because every underlined word should point straight at the circled one next to it. Most of the sentences also have a second noun that the adjective does not describe, such as the log or the beach, so a child has to think about which word is being described rather than circling the first noun they see.
It prints in black and white with two small line drawings and works well as a quick check after a lesson on adjectives.
