This warm-up is great for vocabulary-building. A handy thesaurus should help you come up with some challenging, advanced word choices!
First, write the letters of the alphabet down the side of a sheet of lined paper. Next, leave a blank space followed by a noun that begins with each letter. Finally, go back and add an adjective in front of each noun. If you want to give yourself points, add an extra point for alliteration (using the letter of the alphabet for both the noun and the adjective).
Example (Easy Version)
A: _______ apple
B: _______ beaver
C: _______ cat
A: crunchy apple
B: busy beaver (extra point for alliteration – b/b)
C: purring cat
Example (Hard Version)
A: _______ argument
B: _______ borrower
C: _______ collection
A: abstract argument (extra point for alliteration – a/a)
B: delinquent borrower
C: haphazard collection
