About this worksheet

Describing words help a listener make a clearer picture. Kindergarten children use these words naturally when they say the red cup, a tiny bug, or three blocks, but they may not yet notice the job each word performs. This worksheet develops that awareness without asking children to recite a grammar definition. Every question says a describing word such as soft, cold, big, or tall and asks the child to circle the picture it fits, with other pictures that clearly do not fit.

No reading is needed. Read each question aloud. If your child hesitates, hold something soft and something hard and say the words as you touch them. Encourage your child to look around and add one describing word to the name of a real object after finishing the page.

What your child will learn

  • Circle the picture a describing word fits
  • Use size, feel, temperature, taste, and speed words
  • Pick out the one picture that fits a describing word
  • Build a clearer picture with one useful detail

Common Core standard: L.K.1.F
