Five worksheets that take turns through the activities. Pages 1 and 4: students circle the adjective that compares two things or three or more. Pages 2 and 5: students write each adjective for comparing two and for comparing three or more. Page 3: students circle the adverb that compares. Every answer is worked out from the sentences themselves, and the answer keys mark each one.
