2. Underline the noun(s) that the adjective describes.
3. Then, write two original sentences — one describing a person and one describing a thing — and circle the adjectives.

🔹 Part 1: Circle the adjective and underline the noun it describes

We'll go through each sentence.

4. The little tree is easy to climb.

- This sentence has two adjectives:
- *little* → describes the size of the tree
- *easy* → describes how the tree is to climb (it’s describing the action, but "easy" modifies the idea of climbing, which relates to the tree)

But since we're focusing on nouns, we consider:
- *little* → describes tree
- *easy* → describes the action, not a noun directly. However, in grammar, “easy” is an adjective modifying the infinitive phrase “to climb,” so it’s not describing a noun here.

So only little is an adjective describing a noun.

✔ Answer:
- Circle: little
- Underline: tree

> Note: "easy" is also an adjective, but it doesn't describe a noun; it describes the state of being or action. So for Grade 1, focus on adjectives describing nouns like "little tree."

🌟 Explanation

- Adjectives are words that describe nouns (people, places, things).
- They tell us what kind, how many, which one, how big, what color, etc.
- In each sentence, we find the word that tells us more about the noun — that’s the adjective.

This helps young learners understand how words work together to build meaningful sentences!
