A Poem by Miss Golub
Types of Adjectives

superlative, too,

articles,

adjectives I’ve taught

Common Adjectives
What kind, how
many, which one,
  That’s what common
adjectives describe,
  They add description
to our writing,
  And make nouns and
pronouns come
alive.

Proper Adjectives
Proper adjectives
come from proper
nouns,
  And they start with a
capital letter,
  They sometimes
have a special
ending,
  And they make our
writing better.

Predicate Adjectives
Predicate adjectives
follow linking verbs,
  Together they reveal
state of being,
  (To remember linking
verbs,
  All you have to do is
just start singing!)

Demonstrative Adjectives
Demonstrative
adjectives point to
something,
  Like these books or
this car,
  But we would use
that and those,
  If we see the object
is far.

Articles
Articles are so
significant,
  We use them every
day,
  They are the tiniest
but the most
common,
  Articles are “the,”
“an,” and “a.”

What If…?
Now what if all these
adjectives,
  Were banished from
the land?
  What would the
world be like?
  I think it would be
very bland.

What If…? continued
The world would look
so empty,
  Like pages in a new
coloring book,
  Our senses would be
wanting to know,
  How things feel,
taste, sound, smell,
and look!

Use those adjectives!
So put adjectives in
your writing,
  Use them often and
purposefully,
  Because, then, when
someone reads your
writing,
  They can visualize
what YOU see!
