Comparative Adjectives- Pick and Draw
A LESSON PLAN FOR ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHERS
Students make crazy or sensible sentences with comparatives to draw like "The cockroach is taller than the boy".
Lesson Plan Content:
Comparative adjectives pick and draw
Instructions for teachers
Decide if you want to use the adverbs cards or not. Photocopy and cut up one set of cards per class, or one set per group of two to four students if you want to do the activity in groups. Ask students to spread the cards face up across the table. Students arrange the cards into sentences that they want to draw and/ or that they want their partner to draw.
After students finish the game, get them to put the adjectives into three categories depending on what their comparative adjective forms are. They can then say and/ or write similar sentences to draw whatever they like, and/ or test each other on the comparative forms.
