Describe Action Verbs

This single-page downloadable PDF on adverbs is a wonderful tool for your next ELA lesson. With this use of these ten sentences, students will write an adverb that describes the action verb. As students read the beginning of the sentence that's provided, they should choose reasonable and purposeful vocabulary that can help them communicate the sentence with an adverb. For some students, it may be helpful to have a word bank, while others may benefit from the flexibility of choosing words based on the ones they know. Enjoy this worksheet with your class this week!
