Winter Words
by Patricia
When you are
writing about
winter, choose some seasonal words. Winter is cold, so people wear
different clothes like mittens, boots, and hats. Plus, people do
different activities like shovel, ski, and skate. Good sentences
include adjectives that describe nouns like soft mittens, new boots and
wool hats. They also include adverbs that describe verbs like shovel
regularly, ski slowly, and skate smoothly. Prepositional phrases can
tell a location like near the snowman, under the Christmas tree, or in
the store. If you use some of these words to describe winter, your
sentences will be more descriptive.
Now, try some of these matching quizzes with winter words.
