Inserting Adjectives

We describe our feelings and attitude towards everything in life by using adjectives. The right adjective makes the speech more exact while the wrong one may result in misunderstanding. There is a game that demonstrates it better than anything else.

1. Find a story or other interesting text
2. Retype the text with blank spaces where students are to insert adjectives.
3. Ask students to volunteer ideas for descriptive adjectives that might fit the blank spaces.

Alternatively, ask students to supply adjectives without knowing what the context is or what they are describing. They enumerate some adjectives and you write them in. Then read out or display the result at the end.
