Articles & Noun- Adjective AgreementEssential Question:
How do I use articles and adjectives to agree with nouns?

Agreement:
Articles and adjectives match the gender and number of the nouns they describe
Remember that every noun is either masculine or feminine!!!
Nouns ending in –o = usually masculine
Nouns ending in –a = usually feminine
