Let's think

Today, we are going to look at comparative and superlative adjectives and the story of Horace, Morris and Doris.  If you want to look back at this story after the live lesson, you will find it on Active Learn - Hot, Hotter and Hottest.  We are going to think about what happens to spelling patterns when we change adjectives into comparatives and superlatives plus look at some irregular comparatives and superlatives.

To do

You are going to write your own Horace, Morris and Doris story using comparative and superlative adjectives.  You could keep it simple and just write sets of sentences or you could build it up into a proper story.  Try it for at least 4 different adjectives.  See my example for the adjective hot below.

"My feet are hot!" said Morris. His feet were pink and glowing.

"My feet are hotter!" said Horace.  His feet were red and sizzling.

"My feet are hottest!" said Doris and her feet burst into flames.

You can choose your own 4 adjectives or you can use  ugly      quick     loud        bad

Remember bad does not become badder or baddest!
