Let’s go through each sentence one by one and find the adverb.
Remember: An
adverb tells us *when*, *where*, *how*, or *to what extent* something happens. In these sentences, we’re mostly looking for words that tell us
when something happens — like “now,” “next,” “tomorrow,” etc.
---
Sentence 1:
*I will do my homework now.*
→ “Now” tells us
when the homework will be done.
✔ Adverb:
now
---
Sentence 2:
*What should we do next?*
→ “Next” tells us
when (or in what order) we should do something.
✔ Adverb:
next
---
Sentence 3:
*First, I need to eat a snack.*
→ “First” tells us
when or
in what order this action happens.
✔ Adverb:
First
*(Note: Even though it’s at the beginning of the sentence and followed by a comma, it’s still an adverb telling time/order.)*
---
Sentence 4:
*I will clean my room tomorrow.*
→ “Tomorrow” tells us
when the cleaning will happen.
✔ Adverb:
tomorrow
---
Sentence 5:
*Did you stay home yesterday?*
→ “Yesterday” tells us
when the staying happened.
✔ Adverb:
yesterday
*(“Home” is not an adverb here — it’s telling where, but in this context, it’s acting as a noun/object of the verb “stay.” The clear time word is “yesterday.”)*
---
Final Answer:
1. now
2. next
3. First
4. tomorrow
5. yesterday
