Presentation for More, Less, Fewer

(TESOL Worksheets--Countable and Uncountable, Adjectives, More Less and Fewer)
Slideshow: slides, pub
Worksheet: docs, pub
[This is the presentation stage of a lesson on "more, less, fewer",  The worksheet is meant to supplement the Slideshow.  In my own classes, I used this to supplement English World 5 lesson 12].



Sort these nouns into either countable or uncountable:
air, bird, building, excitement, house, lake nature, noise, people, pollution, school, sunshine, tree, water

countable
uncountable























Next, listen to the story, and fill in the table with the words:
more, less, or fewer



city
countryside
people


excitement


buildings


schools


houses


nature


trees


birds


fresh water


lakes


fresh air


pollution


sunshine


noise




Answers
Recently, I moved from a big city to a small village in the countryside.
I really miss the big city.  In this small village, there are fewer people.  And there is less excitement.  There are fewer buildings.  There are fewer schools, and there are fewer houses.
On the other hand, some things about the countryside are nice. There is more nature in the countryside. There are more trees, and more birds. There is a lot more fresh water in the countryside, there are more lakes, and more rivers. Also, there is more fresh air, and less pollution.  There is more sunshine, and there is less noise.
