Write a mad lib on a large piece of paper or chalkboard. Leaves blank spaces for adjectives and adverbs that the students can fill in. After it is finished, read aloud to the class. Then break the class into pairs or small groups and give each a mad lib. Allow the students 10 minutes to fill in their mad lib before having them read it to the class.
With the students in small groups, give each student an index card with an adverb on it. Each group then decides on a verb they want to act out and students take turns performing their adverb and verb. The other students in the group will need to guess what their adverb is.
Use adverbs when playing Simon Says, such as "Simon Says walk slowly across the room." Write the command on the blackboard if necessary. When students correctly complete the step, ask what the adverb was. If the answer is wrong, they are out. Allow students who are out to come up with the adverbs and actions of Simon Says.
Students should write sentences using adverbs that end with "ly." Next have the students remove the "ly" and rewrite the sentence so that the adverb becomes an adjective. Have the students act both their sentences out in front of the class to illustrate how adverbs and adjectives relate.
