Hello kid! Thank you for giving your time to sit and study this
Self-Instructional Material (SIM). Today, you will learn about
adverbs of time, place and manner. Then later on, you are expected
to compose clear and coherent sentences using appropriate
adverbs.

Before, you learned that adverb is a part of speech that describes a

verb, an adjective and another adverb in a sentence. Below are
examples of sentences with adverbs. Please read.
1. My sister will dance with me later.
• The adverb in the sentence is later.

2. Our family will watch a movie tonight.

• The adverb in the sentence is tonight.

3. We love to play outside the house.

• The adverb in the sentence is outside.

4. My friend sat beside me yesterday.

• The adverb in the sentence is beside.

5. She dances gracefully.

• The adverb in the sentence is gracefully.

6. Marie walks slowly.

It is very important to know well about adverbs to be able to help explain
what the verb is doing. This also helps your family and friends picture
how something was done. There are different kinds of adverb and one
of them is the adverb of time. Here are examples of sentences having
adverbs of time.

1. Mother will teach Martha how to cook tomorrow.

• Tomorrow is an adverb of time.
• It answers the question when Mother will teach Martha how to
cook.
• It is written at the end of the sentence.

2. Today, Ben will read again his favorite book.

• Today is an adverb of time.
• It answers the question when Ben will read again his favorite book.
• It is written in the beginning of the sentence.

3. Father will leave now.

• Now is an adverb of time.
• It answers the question when Father will leave.
• It is written at the end of the sentence.

Adverbs of time tell us when an action happened and also for how long
the action happened. It always answers the question when an action or
something happened.
Example: tonight, today, yesterday, tomorrow, now, later, next week

2
Another kind of adverb is the adverb of place. It will be more
interesting because it will tell you where an action happens. Please read
below.
Hello! I’m Emma.
I have a pet dog. His name is Bibo. We love to
play outside the house. We go inside when it
is raining. During meal time, he eats under
the table. Every night, he sleeps over the
couch. During sunny days, we stroll
everywhere in the park which is nearby the
house.

1. We love to play outside the house.

• Outside is an adverb of place.
• It answers the question where they like to play.
• It is written after the verb play.

2. We go inside when it is raining.

• Inside is an adverb of place.
• It answers the question where they go when it is raining.
• It is written after the verb go.

3. During meal time, he eats under the table.

• Under is an adverb of place.
• It answers the question where he eats during meal time.
• It is written after the verb eats.

4. Every night, he sleeps over the couch.

• Over is an adverb of place.
• It answers the question where he sleeps every night.
• It is written after the verb sleeps.

5. During sunny days, we stroll everywhere in the park which is
nearby the house.
• Everywhere and nearby are adverbs of place.
• They answer the questions where they stroll and where is the
park located.
• They both are written after the verb stroll and verb be is.

To engage more about writing sentences using adverbs, you are going
to learn about adverbs of manner. It will tell you how an action or
something happens. See each picture and read the sentence that tells
something about it.

Sanem dances gracefully.

Gracefully is an adverb of manner.

Adverbs of manner tell how an action or something is done. It always

answers the question how an action or something is done. The suffix –
ly is added to the end of an adjective to form adverbs. However, not all
adverbs of manner end in –ly like well, fast, hard, little, much, and
straight.
Examples: happily angrily carefully politely
beautifully gracefully melodiously slowly
religiously loudly respectfully softly
