Instructional Ideas

• A good addition to a grammar assessment or language arts packet
• Have pairs work together to determine the answer for each sentence
• Encourage learners to write their own sentences, leaving out the prepositions after the adjectives and have their peers fill in the correct word

Classroom Considerations

• Designed for English learners, but would work in a mainstream class

Pros

• Comes with different versions of the worksheet
• Provides an answer key

Cons

• Some answers are difficult to determine because the questions are nuanced; younger learners may have a hard time choosing the correct answer
