Hello, year three. So we are going to be doing some speaking practice about superlatives. 00:00:01

That sounds like a very big, scary word, but it's actually very simple. 00:00:07

So don't worry. What is a superlative? 00:00:13

A superlative is when an adjective is at the highest form that it can be, for example, strongest or fittest. 00:00:18

No one can be stronger than the strongest or fitter than the fittest. 00:00:28

So how do you make an adjective into a superlative? 00:00:35

The most common way is by adding E-S-T to the end of the word. 00:00:40

We have three examples here. 00:00:47

So strong is strongest. Kind, kindest. Fast, fastest. 00:00:49

There are two other simple ways to make a superlative. 00:01:00

When a word is only three letters long, you need to repeat the last letter and then add EST. 00:01:07

So you can see here, fit, we've added an extra T and added EST to make fittest. 00:01:16

Big, with an extra G, an EST, biggest. 00:01:27

There is one exception, however, which is old. 00:01:34

Old doesn't need an extra D. It is simply oldest. 00:01:39

Next, we have funny. 00:01:48

You will see when the word ends in a Y, you must replace that with an I, with E-S-T. 00:01:51

So funny is funniest. 00:02:01

Now, using what we have just learned, can you make sentences with these superheroes? 00:02:04

So, for example, number one, she is the bravest. 00:02:17

Can you now do number two with strong? Great. 00:02:23

And what about number three, clever? Number four, funny. 00:02:33

Number five, fit. Good. And now last, number six, kind. Very good. Now, I want you to think about 00:02:45

your own family. And looking at these adjectives here, young, old, tall, short, slow, and fast. 00:03:16

Can you complete the sentence with the person of your family and also the ending to the superlative? 00:03:30

I have made a note here. If it applies to you, then you simply say, I am the youngest in my family. 00:03:41

If I was answering number one, I would say, my brother is the youngest. 00:03:52

Could you now complete number two with old? Good. Now, who could be tall in your family? 00:03:58

And now the opposite, short. Number five, slow. This could be running or swimming. 00:04:28

And number six, fast. There we are. Great work. 00:04:47
