This Class 2 worksheet helps young learners understand the correct order of adjectives—especially size and colour—before naming words. Students explore how descriptive words work together by identifying, choosing, matching, and correcting adjective phrases in simple, meaningful sentences. With a blend of MCQs, blanks, matching, underlining, and paragraph completion, children learn to use adjective order naturally while improving their descriptive writing skills.
Learning how to place adjectives correctly helps children describe objects clearly and confidently. This concept is important in Grade 2 because:
1. It teaches the foundational rule that size adjectives usually come before colour adjectives. 2. It supports clearer, more expressive sentences in early writing.
3. It helps children avoid common ordering errors like “red big balloon.”
4. It prepares learners for more advanced grammar topics involving multiple adjectives.
This worksheet contains five engaging exercises that guide children from recognition to correct usage:

Adjectives usually follow the order of size, shape, colour, and material before the noun.
Because they describe objects naturally and may not know the fixed sequence used in English grammar.
By giving simple objects and asking children to describe them using size, colour, and material in order.
