About this worksheet
Pictures in three sizes show the idea: a tall, taller and tallest tree, big balloons, small ladybugs and long snakes, with the -er and -est words to write under them. Then four more adjectives with spelling traps (fast, hot - hotter, happy - happiest, cold). Key on page 2. It fits second grade grammar, ages 7 to 8, with the rule printed at the top when there is one to remember.
Tips for using it
- Do one grammar sheet at a time and read the instructions aloud together; the rule usually fits in one sentence.
- Ask children to say each sentence out loud before they write: most grammar mistakes sound wrong when spoken.
- Use the answer key to let older kids check their own work with a colored pencil.
- Mix one picture sheet with one writing sheet per week so grammar does not feel like a test.
Printing tips
Download the PDF and print at 100% (or “fit to page” on A4). Page 1 is the worksheet and page 2 is the answer key with the answers in red; print just page 1 if you want to keep the answers for checking. Free for personal, family and classroom use.
