As you know, we have been studying adjectives this week. To complete this project, we brainstormed adjectives to describe our favorite food. Then we created a life-sized Venn diagram using hula hoops and compared our favorite foods. After we took a picture of our Venn diagrams, we explained the process and included sentences using comparative adjectives. Enjoy!

This blog post is brought to you by Spotlight Blogger: Daniel. As you can guess, Daniel loves to learn. What's your favorite thing to learn about? What are your favorite activities? Please post a comment to share with everyone! One of the things we've been working on in class 2-B is grammar. Grammar includes: nouns, adjectives, verbs, and adverbs.
A noun is a person, place, or thing. An adjective is a describing word. A verb is an action word. An adverb is also a describing word, but don't mix it up with an adjective. Here's a trick to help you remember the difference between and adjective and an adverb. An adjective works with a noun and an adverb works with a verb. Another three things we learned about are: simile, onomatopoeia,and alliteration. Similes are comparing words. Here’s an example: The slamming door is as loud as thunder. Onomatopoeia are sounds we think\hear animals say. Here’s an example:The duck said QUACK! Alliterations are sentences that start with the same letter or sound. Here’s an example: Merry Marisa Makes Mad Mice. This is what we've been learning in class 2-B so far. I don't know my friends' opinions, but I think it's fun. I hope to learn A LOT more grammar. |
