In class today, students created and decorated crowns. Why? Because a crown is a thing: a noun, and the decorations can be described: adjectives. Adjectives cannot live without nouns. This hands-on activity helps students understand the grammatical differences between demonstrative prouNOUNS, and demonstrative ADJECTIVES as well as several other types of pronouns.
REMEMBER“A noun wears a crown and is king of the town. It stands on its own.
Yet an adjective, alone cannot live; it needs a noun around!”
A sheet was assigned for homework. Note: the answers on the second page should be the same as the answers on the front.
