Common questions

What do Year 5 students learn about adjectives & adverbs?

Describing words and how they build detail. At Year 5, our resources focus on: forming comparative and superlative adjectives; comparing two or more things; forming adverbs with -ly; practising making adverbs.

Where should we start?

Start with the Level 1 or Level 2 worksheet, then move up a level. Finish with the topic test if there is one.

Are answers included?

Yes — every worksheet has an answer sheet. Maths answer sheets show the working; English tasks include model answers or success criteria.

How to use these resources

  1. Pair a reading comprehension with a writing prompt on a similar text type.
  2. Use the model answers and success criteria on the answer sheet to talk through what 'good' looks like.
  3. Keep spelling practice short and daily; test on Friday.
