Step-by-step solution for: Grade 4 & 5 Adjective Worksheets | English | Free Printable
Let's solve this step by step. The task is to underline the adjectives in each sentence. Adjectives are words that describe or modify nouns (or pronouns), giving us more information about their size, color, shape, age, emotions, etc.
We’ll go through each sentence and identify the adjectives.
---
- tiny – describes the dog (size)
- loud – describes how he was (sound)
- annoying – describes his behavior (emotion/quality)
✔ Adjectives: tiny, loud, annoying
---
- large – describes the umbrella (size)
- gusty – describes the wind (type of wind)
- treacherous – describes the weather (dangerous nature)
✔ Adjectives: large, gusty, treacherous
---
- nasty – describes the sister (behavior/emotion)
- terrible – describes the sister (quality)
- poor – describes Pauline (emotional state)
✔ Adjectives: nasty, terrible, poor
---
- tiny – describes the car (size)
- yellow – describes the car (color)
- fast – describes the car (speed)
- muddy – describes the streets (condition)
> Note: "quickly" is an adverb, not an adjective — it modifies the verb "drove". So we don’t underline it.
✔ Adjectives: tiny, yellow, fast, muddy
---
- cold – describes the winter (temperature)
- painful – describes the winter (feeling)
- unforgiving – describes the winter (nature)
✔ Adjectives: cold, painful, unforgiving

- new – describes the teacher (time/state)
✔ Adjectives: pink, new
---
- quiet – describes the boy (behavior)
- dark – describes the eyes (color)
- old – describes the books (age)
✔ Adjectives: quiet, dark, old

4. His tiny yellow car was fast. He drove it quickly through the muddy streets.
5. The cold winter came every year. It was painful and unforgiving.
6. Jackson lost his pink hat. He wanted to wear it to school and show his new teacher.
