Descriptive Writing: Adjectives and Adverbs Worksheet

Language-impaired students often struggle to use descriptive and specific terms in their writing, limiting their ability to adequately communicate their meaning; this four-page worksheet aims to make this process easier for these learners.

Descriptiveness is pivotal to strong writing, but it is unfortunately not a skill easily achieved by a high percentage of language-impaired learners. This four-page worksheet starts with a discussion of descriptive writing and adjective use, following with an activity asking students to embed provided adjectives into a variety of sentences. It subsequently discusses adverb usage and provides examples and tasks involving the usage of various kinds of adverbs, as well as the flexibility of placement within a similar variety of sentences. The comprehensive nature of the explanations, examples, and subsequent activities offers students adequate practice to help drastically improve the descriptiveness of their writing.
