To identify and use powerful adjectives that create vivid imagery and strengthen storytelling. The worksheets present eight sentences, each containing one or more adjectives that describe nouns. Students are asked to read each sentence carefully and identify the adjectives, which are the words that describe or modify the nouns in the sentence.
