to the carpet..........What are we going to learn today?

WALT identify adverb phrases

REMEMBER

A verb is a doing word or action

A phrase is a group of words that does not contain a verb

An adverb describes the verb

The adverb phrase tells the reader more about the verb

To find the adverb phrase;

• find the verb draw a circle round it

• find the words(phrase) that describe the verb (action)

It could tell you

where it happened how it happened

when it happened

e.g. Shaun can swim better than Mrs Robertson can.

underline it

Now, let’s try and put some sentences together

using adverb phrases

Drag the two parts together, to make some

super sentences

Conner left his dog

There was a knock at the door

We will go over this again

Glen did his writing job

Cameron ran

The crows had nested

on top of the chimney

as quickly as he could

slowly and carefully.

in the morning.

late last night.

outside the shop.

with a loud screeching noise.

before the first lesson

in front of the camera

gasping for breath
