Delicious chocolate cream cakes. The first three words all describe the cake and are adjectives.
Adjectives 1
This quiz is about adjectives and is for Year 2 pupils at KS1 level. It is based on the National Curriculum's requirement that they use expanded noun phrases in their writing. Identifying and using adjectives really improves their knowledge of Literacy and English, especially when writing stories and poems.
When we write, we should add as much description as possible. To make our writing more interesting we should add adjectives. An adjective describes a noun. A noun could be ‘girl’ but the adjective would be ‘tall’ and so, ‘A tall girl’ is more detailed than just ‘A girl.’

walking

Which word is not an adjective to describe this monster?
