Let’s go through each sentence one by one. Remember:
-
Circle the adverb (the word that tells *how*, *when*, or *where* something happens).
-
Underline the verb (the action word that the adverb is describing).

Now, for the last part: Write your own sentence, then underline the verb and circle the adverb.
Example you could write:

beautifully.
→ Circle: beautifully
→ Underline: sings
(You can make up any sentence like this — just pick an action word and add a word that describes how, when, or where.)
