Students will be able to differentiate between adverbs and adverbials, and use them correctly in sentences.
To begin the lesson, the student's will watch a short video clip explaining what are Adverbials?
After that, theĀ teacher will introduce the concept of Adverbs and Adverbials using interactive examples.
Adverbs describe how, when, or where an action is done.
Adverbials are phrases or clauses that function as adverbs.
Adverbs and adverbials add detail and information to sentences.
Pro tip: Student's think that Adverbs only describe Verbs, however the fact is that Adverbs can also modify Adjectives or other Adverbs.
This activity would be linked to the Narrative story which they've written earlier,children can read each other's stories as a group and incorporate Adverb and Adverbials in their stories!
After this,the children would be taken through a presentation in order to enhance their undertsanding on the usage of Adverbs and Adverbials.
To wrap up the lesson, students will participate in a quick game of "Adverb Charades" where they will act out an action while classmates guess the adverb or adverbial that best describes the action.
Following is a list of adverbs that might be included in your set of cards:
accidentally,angrily,anxiously,badly
blindly,bravely,briefly,busily,calmly,carelessly,cautiously,courageously
doubtfully,easily
For the extension activity, early finishers can create a comic strip using adverbs and adverbials to describe character actions and settings.
