Amazing adverbs!

This afternoon Reception were learning all about adverbs. These are words that describe HOW we do something, and they usually end in the letters -ly.

We acted out moving in lots of different ways such as quickly, slowly, quietly, sadly, and excitedly. Then we thought about who might be moving, what they are like and where they're moving to. We built up sentences and practised saying them together.

Miss Ayres' sentence was: The fierce dragon flew quickly to his cave.

As a group we wrote the sentence: The handsome knight bravely rode his horse to the castle to rescue the princess.

Can you spot our adverbs?

Then we worked on our own, thinking of a character and describing them, then saying where they were going and using an adverb. We wrote our sentences down and drew pictures to go with them, not forgetting our capital letters and full stops!

Here are our super sentences with amazing adverbs!
