Adverbs are words that modify adjectives, verbs or another adverb.

Classification of Adverbs

1. Adverb of Time tells when an action is done. It answers the question when.
Example: They will go camping on Saturday.
They are playing volleyball now.
The adverb of time comes after the adverb of place, or in some cases, at the end of the
sentence.

2. Adverb of Place tells where the action takes place. It answers the question where or
in which direction.
Example: They are watching in the room.
The guests will stay here.
The adverb of place comes after the verb.

3. Adverb of Manner tells us how an action was done. It answers the question how or
in what way.
 F. Guided Practice
Activity 1

4. The economy of the Philippines went down during the pandemic.
