🔍 Step 1: Understand the Task

We are given a word bank with several words. Our job is to:
1. Circle the adjectives in the word bank.
2. Use those adjectives to complete the sentences.

✔ Step 2: Identify the Adjectives

First, let’s go through the word bank and determine which words are adjectives (words that describe nouns).

Word Bank:
- clumsy – ✔ adjective (describes someone who is awkward)
- fatigue – ✘ noun (a state of tiredness)
- island – ✘ noun
- pleasant – ✔ adjective (nice, agreeable)
- timid – ✔ adjective (shy, nervous)
- curious – ✔ adjective (eager to learn)
- heavy – ✔ adjective (weighs a lot)
- koala – ✘ noun (animal)
- precious – ✔ adjective (very valuable)
- tiny – ✔ adjective (very small)
- dirty – ✔ adjective (not clean)
- hungry – ✔ adjective (feeling the need to eat)
- long – ✔ adjective (having great length)
- eye – ✘ noun
- trouble – ✘ noun
- envy – ✘ noun (also a verb, but not an adjective here)
- important – ✔ adjective (of great significance)
- mark – ✘ noun (or verb, but not an adjective)
- strong – ✔ adjective (having strength)
- vision – ✘ noun

✔ Adjectives from the word bank:
> clumsy, pleasant, timid, curious, heavy, precious, tiny, dirty, hungry, long, important, strong

So, we would circle these in the word bank.

✔ Step 3: Complete the Sentences Using Adjectives

Now, use the correct adjectives to fill in the blanks.

Let’s go one by one:

---

1. The ______ man helped the woman cross the street.
→ "pleasant" is already filled in. ✔️
✔ *Pleasant* describes the man’s friendly nature.

2. The ______ papers were left on the table.
→ Which adjective fits?
“Dirty” makes sense — dirty papers might be left on a table.
✔ dirty

3. Mark was talking with his ______ neighbour.
→ “Curious” or “timid”? But “curious” fits better if he’s asking questions.
But “important” could also work, but less likely.
Wait — perhaps “friendly”? Not in list.
Best fit: curious — maybe they’re discussing something interesting.
But another option: important — if it’s a neighbor with influence.
But “curious” is more natural.
Actually, “clumsy” doesn’t make sense.
Wait — "important" could fit if it's a significant neighbor.
But “timid” — shy neighbor? Possible.
But “curious” seems best.
But let’s look at others.

Wait — maybe “precious” — no, doesn’t fit.

Better choice: clumsy? No.

Let’s think again.

Maybe "important" — as in a notable neighbor?

But “curious” is more common.

Alternatively, "timid" — shy neighbor.

But "curious" is the best fit for someone you're talking to.

✔ curious

4. Is it true that a ______ mouse can scare an elephant?
→ The mouse is very small → tiny
✔ tiny

5. Leave your ______ shoes on the mat by the door.
→ Shoes are usually dirty when coming from outside.

6. The ______ baby was crying for his bottle.
→ A baby crying for food → hungry

7. The ______ players scored many goals.
→ Strong players? Yes. Or “strong” means physically powerful.
Or “important”? Less likely.
“Strong” fits well — strong players = good players.
✔ strong

8. Lydia left her ______ backpack at the bottom of the stairs.
→ Backpacks can be heavy, especially if full.
✔ heavy

9. Teddy is so ______ and he tripped on the sidewalk.
→ Tripping suggests clumsiness → clumsy

💡 Explanation:

- We identified adjectives from the word bank (words that describe nouns).
- Then matched them logically to each sentence based on meaning and context.
- Some words like "fatigue", "island", "koala", "eye", "trouble", "envy", "mark", "vision" are nouns, so they were not used.

This worksheet helps students practice identifying and using adjectives to describe people, things, and situations.
