Level 6 Adverbs: Adverbs are words that change verbs, adjectives and other adverbs. They can modify (or change) a verb by making it more precise.

I have laminated these for my class and differentiate so some of the students complete only the 3 word sentences and some complete the 4 or 5 word sentences, but using the same pictures.
