and The Sweet Shop and highlight all of the descriptions
used to describe the sweets.

3. Adjectives
Task 2
Take two different sweets and write a
descriptive sentence about how they taste.
My example: Chocolate éclair: When you open the
wrapper, the smell is inviting. It is hard when you
pop it in your mouth, but it soon becomes
soft and chewy. It has a slight vanilla
flavour and a creamy texture. What
surprises you is the chocolate centre
which melts in your mouth! Delicious!!!
