Descriptive Language

We have spent time this year using the visual placemat as well as our five senses to describe objects. This activity targets the following speech and language objectives:

1. Vocabulary Development- use of descriptive language (adjectives), categorization, association, and word retrieval skills

We have learned to describe by talking about:

Taste Smell Sight

Sound Touch/Texture

Size

ShapeCategory/Group

Color

Association/Things that go

together

Function/Use

Location

Directions: Circle the describing word in each sentence.
