a. Motivation
The teacher will let the children read the projected poem about Summer.
Summer Days
Summer days, nice and long
makes me want to sing a song.
It is hot and dry but I still sing,
when I hear the ice cream man bells ring.
Snow-cones and ice pop makes me cool,
Even though I love the pool
Summers speeding by so fast
Oh, I wish these days would last.
For when it ends, I must abandon my pool,
I really dread going back to school.
But in the end, it will suffice
Because I had the best summer of my life!
b. Discussion
1. The teacher will let the children answer the following questions.
- What is the title of the poem?
- What are the words that were italicized in the poem? From those words,
choose appropriate words that describe Summer Days.
2. The teacher will tell the children that these words that describe are called
Adjectives. Adjectives are words that describe person, animals, places, things

or events. They are usually placed before the nouns they describe or tell
about.
Example: red apple
hot summer
pretty lady
They are also placed after the words am, is, are, was and were
Example: She is lovely. Summer is hot and dry.
3. To easily remember Adjectives, the teacher will teach the Adjective Song.
Adjectives are words that tell,
that describe, persons
places, animals and things, and events
4. The teacher will show set of pictures. Then the children will identify the
appropriate adjectives for each picture.
