This file contains everything you'll need to teach the 4th Grade Common Core ELA Standard 4L1d. Order adjectives within sentences according to conventional patterns (e.g., a small red bag rather than a red small bag). These lessons assume that students already know what adjectives and nouns are.

This unit is structured to take about 1 week of instruction.
Day #1: Teacher-led instruction through demonstration, examples, and student foldable.
Day #2: Guided practice pulling from real literature with students looking for their own examples in self-selected authentic texts.
Day #3-4: Structured Individual Practice through word sorts and a sentence building activity.
Day #5: Assessment with 10 multiple choice questions and two open-ended questions.

This file includes nearly 60 pages of materials including two presentations, a word work center for days 3 & 4, and several student printables. Detailed lesson suggestions are provided.
