A free, printable order of adjectives worksheet for 4th grade. Your child sorts adjectives by kind, puts them in order and describes real objects. Answer key included.
What's inside
- Page 1: sort 8 adjectives by kind, then order the adjectives in 6 phrases.
- Page 2: fix 3 phrases, then describe two objects in your home.
- Page 3: answer key.
How to use it
- Teach or review the rule first with the order of adjectives lesson. It takes about 10 minutes.
- Read the directions for each part out loud. Early readers can point while you read.
- Check Part A together before your child goes on, so any confusion gets fixed early.
- Use the answer key on the last page.
Prints on US Letter paper (8.5 × 11 in). No sign-up needed.
Tips for doing it together
- Keep it short. One page a day is plenty for most young children, and two short sessions beat one long one.
- Let your child read each sentence out loud before answering. Many mistakes get caught by ear.
- Mark a mistake with a small dot instead of an X, and let your child find and fix it. That's where the learning happens.
What your child is practicing
English adjectives follow a set order: opinion, then size, then color, and so on. The 4th grade standard uses the example a small red bag, not a red small bag. Part A sorts adjectives by kind, which makes ordering them easy.
