Hello,

today in Zoom we read Chapter 8 and 9 and looked at the answers for last week, and watched a bit of the film. For this week, read Chapter 10 and do the activity for adverbs. Adverbs add meaning to verbs, so the name ad (meaning towards) and verb (a class of words). In this activity, we will be looking at adverbs of manner; in other words how something is done. Throughout the story there are numerous examples of adverbs of manner. Consider this sentence from chapter 9: “…the spider busily worked at the task” (page 53). In this sentence the verb is worked. The adverb busily tells the reader how Charlotte worked. The answer is busily. Below is a list of adverbs found throughout chapter 10. Reread chapter 10 and find the verbs the adverbs are modifying. Note: adverbs can come after the verb they modify as well as before. Good luck!
