Lesson Plan:

1. Introduction (5 minutes):
   • Begin the lesson by asking students if they know what adjectives are.
   • Explain that adjectives are words that describe or give more information about nouns (people, places, or things).
   • Give a few examples of adjectives (e.g., big, small, tall, short, colorful, noisy) and ask students to share their own examples.
2. Adjective Brainstorm (10 minutes):
   • Display a chart paper or use a whiteboard to create a word web.
   • Write the word “School” in the center and ask students to brainstorm adjectives that describe their school.
   • Encourage students to think about the appearance, size, shape, color, and other characteristics of their school.
   • Write down their suggestions around the word “School” on the chart paper.
3. Adjective Word Cards (10 minutes):
   • Distribute adjective word cards to each student or in small groups.
   • Explain that they will be using these word cards to collect data around the school.
   • Instruct students to find objects or places in the school that match the adjective on their card.
   • Encourage them to write down or draw the objects/places they find.
4. Data Collection Walk (15 minutes):
   • Take the students on a walk around the school, allowing them to explore different areas.
   • Instruct them to observe and collect data using their adjective word cards.
   • Remind students to write down or draw the objects/places they find and the corresponding adjective.
5. Data Sharing and Discussion (10 minutes):
   • Gather the students back in the classroom.
   • Ask volunteers to share the objects/places they found and the adjectives they used.
   • Write down their findings on the chart paper or whiteboard.
   • Discuss similarities and differences in their observations.
   • Encourage students to ask questions and engage in a conversation about their findings.
6. Reflective Activity (5 minutes):
   • Ask students to reflect on their experience and share one thing they learned about adjectives.
   • Allow a few students to share their reflections with the class.
7. Extension Activity (optional):
   • If available, use a camera or smartphones to take pictures of the objects/places students found.
   • Create a class photo album or display board with the pictures and corresponding adjectives.
   • Encourage students to write sentences using the adjectives and the objects/places in the pictures.

Conclusion: - Recap the main points of the lesson, emphasizing that adjectives are words that describe nouns. - Congratulate students on their active participation and data collection. - Encourage them to continue using adjectives in their everyday language and writing.
