Teaching adjectives

Teaching 10 adjectives describing feelings (glad, thrilled, pleased, delighted, ecstatic, miserable, bored, horrified, irritated, depressed).

1. Presenting the adjectives in connection with emoticons - having the students mime the words.

       
                 

2. Dividing the adjectives into positive/negative categories and asking students to think of a time when they felt like that.

3. Students work in pairs: each pair is given one of the adjectives and has to write a mini-dialogue (max. 4 lines, not using the exact word). The others have to guess the adjective.

    Excellent work! You may want to think of a continuation of the 2nd activity - do they only think about it or they have something to do once they remembered past experience?

    Also, you may want to think of a way to make the difference between the various shades of intesity and find an activity to explore that (for example, the difference between tired and eshausted)
