Depending on the length of your lessons, you may not want to spend the whole lesson teaching adjectives, but you can still make it the main objective and focus of the lesson.
Here are a few ideas you can use if you want to teach your students adjectives.
The main need of students who are starting to learn English is vocabulary.
Depending on the subjects you've been teaching, it could be classroom vocabulary, household vocabulary, or people.
Adjectives to describe physical appearance of objects and people are very useful at this stage.
They could then pair the words in opposites.
Students at pre-intermediate level need to expand their vocabulary.
Also important at this level is to make sure the students know the word order for multiple adjectives .
For example:
I have a beautiful, big, red, metal table. ( opinion , size , color , material )
Vocabulary and fluency are key here. Encourage sharing of vocabulary during alphabet or memory games.
Develop use of correct collocations , for example, we say, "The rain was heavy ," not "The rain was strong ."
Whichever level you are teaching, it is important to make sure your lessons include a range of activities to suit all learning styles, and that they provide the students with as many opportunities as possible to speak English, either with you or with each other.
Adjectives lesson plans do not have to be boring at all!
