The passages discuss different grammar exercises that can be used with students of various ages, including using adjectives to describe characters, a memory game for tenses, and potential issues that may come up.

Adjectives can be used to give information about a character's appearance and personality. Teachers may have students identify adjectives in stories, brainstorm adjectives for characters, and create character profiles using adjectives.

The memory tenses card game is similar to traditional Memory/Concentration games. Players take turns flipping cards to match sentences with their correct verb tenses.

 identify adjectives within the text
 brainstorm adjectives that describe your chosen character
 complete the steps to create a character concertina

Like the traditional “Memory” game, players, in turns, will turn upside-down each card and try to match the sentence with the tense that is being
used.
