C. Activity

Play the “Bring Me” Game!

The Bring Me Game concept is simple, funny game enjoyed by children and adults,
because it has a lot of action. The teacher should ask for random objects/items. The
teacher will call random students to compare their object with their other classmate. For
example the teacher wants the students to bring a pencil then pick a student to compare
it with what his/her classmate have. He/she can say “ Nica’s pencil is longer than mine.”

A. Analysis

1. Were there any comparison made?

2. What adjectives were used in comparing the things?
3. What do you notice about the activity?

B. Abstraction

DEGREES OF ADJECTIVES
We can use comparatives to compare things and superlatives to say which thing is top
in a group.

Cats are faster than mice.

Science is more difficult than maths.

The cheetah is the fastest animal.

I think art is the most difficult subject.

How to use them

For adjectives with one syllable, add er and est. Sometimes the spelling changes. Don't
forget the for the superlative.

tall - taller - the tallest

I'm taller than my brother. My father is the tallest in my family.

big - bigger - the biggest

My room is bigger than my sister's room. Our parents' room is the biggest room in the
house.

For adjectives with two syllables which end in y, take away the y and add ier and iest.
Don't forget the for the superlative.
easy - easier - the easiest

Maths is easier than science. English is the easiest subject.

For other adjectives with two or more syllables, use more and most. Don't forget the for
the superlative.

interesting - more interesting - the most interesting

That book is more interesting than my homework. This TV programme is the most
interesting!

DEGREES OF SPECIAL ADJECTIVES

The adjectives good, bad and far have special forms.

good - better - the best

bad - worse - the worst

far - further - the furthest

Which adjectives are irregular or special in the comparison?

Moreover, some English adjectives are compared completely irregularly, which means
that they have special or unique forms in their comparative or superlative degrees.
There are no rules for these particular forms; the spelling and meaning must simply be
learned. Compare the following table:
