Adjectives for Describing the Face

Our Spotlight lesson this week is The Face, a fun and colourful vocabulary lesson from our Word Bank – Describing People & Things section. As a follow-up and expansion, try teaching some common adjectives that your students can use to describe the face and hair. You can also use these adjectives with Tara’s vocabulary activity (which will be on our blog on Thursday). Scroll down to the end of this post for examples, sentence patterns, and a discussion on comma placement with multiple adjectives.

The Face

Learning vocabulary thematically helps students remember new words more easily. Repetition that’s varied and engaging is also helpful. The lessons in our Word Bank are grouped by theme and contain eight pages of fun, colourful exercises each! We’ve just created a NEW vocabulary lesson for your young learners on The Face.

The Face includes a colorful picture dictionary, matchup, word choice, word search, word scramble, and spelling bee. This lesson covers all the basic parts of the face as well as some more detailed parts such as eyelids and eyelashes. Discussion questions at the end allow your students to practice the new vocabulary in context.
