Introduction to Adjectives:

• Definition: Adjectives are words that describe nouns.
• Examples: Words like big, small, happy, sad, red, blue, tall, short.

Basic Comparisons:

• Comparative Adjectives: Used to compare two things (e.g., bigger, smaller, taller, shorter).
• Superlative Adjectives: Used to compare more than two things, indicating the extreme quality (e.g., biggest, smallest, tallest, shortest).

Visual Aids and Examples:

• Use pictures that clearly show differences (size, color, number).
• Examples:
  • Two apples (one big, one small).

• Two balloons (one red, one blue).

• Three dogs (one big, one medium, one small).

Sentence Frames for Comparison:

Provide simple structures to help students form sentences:

“The [noun] is [comparative adjective] than the [noun].”

Examples:

• “The apple is bigger than the orange.”

• “The cat is smaller than the dog.”

Comparative Adjectives:
