Sažetak
The paper analyses the competences of fi rst-graders when using adjectives.
The research was conducted on a sample of 82 students of the Primary School
Grabrik. The analysis of three different writing activities with different motivation
showed that students used 13.45% of adjectives in their vocabulary. The writing
activities comprised: retelling an event, describing a picture and retelling an
experience. A different usage of adjectives could be observed, depending on
the different motivation. Students used the greatest number of adjectives when
describing a picture, whereas they used fewer adjectives when retelling an
experience. A frequency analysis showed that students wrote the greatest number
of different adjectives when retelling their experience.
