Comparatives An adjective is a describing word. When we compare two nouns we use a comparative adjective. An example of this is the use of the endings: -er -est. If you look at these sentences, we are using comparative adjectives to describe size. A pony is small. A cat is smaller. A mouse is smallest. Task One Copy and complete this chart. Be careful with 12 and 13.
Extension Choose 8 of the adjectives and write 3 sentences for each showing the comparisons. (Like the example at the top of the sheet with the pony, cat and mouse. Try and make your sentences more exciting than mine!) |
