GRAMMATICAL ACCURACY
INTRODUCING ADJECTIVES: MEANING AND EXAMPLES OF ADJECTIVES
Adjectives are describing words.
It helps to describe the characteristics or qualities of a person, animal, place or things.
For example:

Fat Pig Small Room
Red Bag Long Stick
They are also words that describes numbers, colours, size and shape. 
Five Oranges Black Shoe
Five describes the number of oranges. Black describes the colour of the shoe.
Big box Round Table
Big describe the size of the box Round describes the shape of the table.
Adjectives are therefore, words that describe the quality, shape, numbers, colours, size.
Words that also describes how someone feels, tastes, smells, looks or sounds are called adjectives.
So, adjectives are ways of telling other people how we feel, taste, smell, look what things around us are like and how think of others.
Examples are:
Hungry boy, sweet pie, bad odor, pretty lady, loud music.
Here, hungry describes how the boy feels
Sweet describes the taste of the pie
Bad describes the smell of the odor,
Pretty describes the look of the lady
Loud describes the sound of the music.
