Fun ESL adjectives classroom activity

Try this easy “Guess the adjective” game to help students use describing words.

The teacher chooses an object or person in the classroom and gives one clue using an adjective, for example: “It is big.” Students guess what it is: “The door!” / “The table!” – then add a second adjective to confirm: “It is also brown.” The student who shouts out the correct answer first can then take over.
