Hello Wrekin, today we will be looking at adjectives again.

Describing words are also known as adjectives. They describe nouns (the names of things or of places).

You can use lots of adjectives in your sentences.

For example: There is a huge and spiky plant outside my window.

Adjectives make our sentences so much better!

I’d like you to have a go at describing a monster for me!

Can you write a description of this monster using the adjectives next to it. You’ll have to pick them carefully though.
