Adjectives (Intro) — Answer Key
Part A: Trace the Words
Trace each word carefully by following the dotted lines.
1. big
2. red
3. small
4. blue
5. tall
6. short
Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. The ball is red.
Adjectives tell about color. A color word describes how a noun looks, so it fits the blank after 'is'.
2. My dog is big.
Size words like big or small are adjectives. They describe how large or little a noun is.
3. The sky is blue.
Color adjectives describe how things look. Blue tells us the color of the sky noun.
4. The mouse is small.
Small is a size adjective. It describes how little the mouse is compared to other animals.
Part C: True or False?
Read each statement. Circle True or False.
1. The word 'red' is an adjective because it tells a color.
True False
Yes! Color words like red, blue, and green are adjectives. They describe how a noun looks.
2. The word 'run' is an adjective that describes a noun.
True False
No. 'Run' is a verb — an action word. Adjectives describe nouns, they don't show action.
3. Adjectives can tell how big or small something is.
True False
Yes! Size words are adjectives. They help us picture how large or small a noun is.
