🌟 Adverbs: How, When, or Where? 🌟

An adverb is a word that gives us more information about a verb. It can tell us how, when, or where an action happens. ✨

Adverbs that tell us HOW 🎨

• These adverbs describe the way an action is done.
• Examples: quickly 🏃‍♂️, slowly 🐢, carefully 🤲, happily 😄
• Sentence: She ran quickly to catch the bus. 🚌

Image idea: Picture of a child running fast with motion lines and a turtle walking slowly.

Adverbs that tell us WHEN ⏰

• These adverbs tell us the time of an action.
• Examples: now 🕒, today 🌞, yesterday 📅, soon ⏳
• Sentence: We will play tomorrow. 🎾

Image idea: Calendar showing today, yesterday, and tomorrow.

Adverbs that tell us WHERE 📍

• These adverbs tell us the place of an action.
• Examples: here 🏡, there 🌳, everywhere 🌎, outside 🌤️
• Sentence: The cat is sleeping outside. 🐱

Image idea: Cat sleeping in the garden outside the house.

💡 Quick Tips 💡

• Ask the question:
  • How? → check how the action happens
  • When? → check when the action happens
  • Where? → check where the action happens
• Many adverbs end in -ly (quickly, slowly, happily) 📝
• Not all adverbs end in -ly! (yesterday, outside, here) ❌

💡✅ Mini Activity for Students

1. Circle the adverb in each sentence:
   • The dog barked loudly. 🐶
