Adjectives vs adverbs
English · Grammar & Punctuation · conceptual
Use adjectives and adverbs correctly, choosing between them depending on whether a noun or verb/adjective is being modified (e.g., 'She ran quickly' vs 'She is quick')
What mastery looks like
- Choose the correct form: 'The dog is (slow/slowly)' vs 'The dog walks (slow/slowly)'
- Identify whether a word is modifying a noun (adjective) or a verb (adverb) in a given sentence
- Expand sentences by adding both an adjective and an adverb: 'The tall boy ran quickly'
Check your understanding
If Adjectives vs adverbs writes "she ran quick" instead of "she ran quickly", can they spot that they need an adverb to describe the running — and fix it themselves?
