Analysis Our topic for this afternoon is The box is heavy.
about Adjectives Degrees of
Comparison The box is heavier than the bag.

Let’s have the words that you The box is the heaviest among
guessed earlier. other things in the room.

Please read the first sentence. Only one.

The word heavy in this sentence
is in positive degree.
But what happens when you
compare the heavy box into
another thing?
One syllable adjective forms the
comparative degree by
changing to word with –er in
the ending of the word.
It will become colder.

(Students will read the It will become angrier.

sentence)
We will add –est to the word to
When you compare heavier box form superlative degree.
to another thing, you need to
use comparative degree. This
means that the word will
change.

What should we do if compare

the box in more than one thing.
Let say we will compare the box
in three other things.

(Students will read the

sentence)

We would then use superlative

degree in comparing the box in
two or more things.

Would you please tell me how

many syllables does the word
heavy has?

What can you say about the

changing from positive degree
to comparative degree with one
syllable?

How about the word cold?

 What can you say about the
changing from positive degree
to comparative degree with two
syllables?

Let say angry.

Two syllables' adjectives form

the comparative degree by
changing to word with –er in
the ending of the word or
adding more before the word.

More angry or angrier

How about changing from

comparative degree to
superlative degree?

Three syllables' adjectives form

the comparative degree by
changing to word with –est in
the ending of the word or
adding “most” before the word.

Let’s have the word intelligence.

We therefore need to say more

intelligent or most intelligent.
