This set of multi-lesson materials contained in 22 ppts and 6 accompanying individual tasks (which can be set as classwork or homework), gives a useful and detailed introduction to adverbs for ESL students in the K10-K12 groups. The materials could also be adapted for other students/levels if necessary. The materials were initially designed with a focus on improving my students grammatical and sentence accuracy in their academic essays. I believe an unintended side-effect is the focus on accurate sentence structures through the correct placement of the adverb in a sentence. The ppts help clarify the role of adverbs and how they can be seen as conjunctions, prepositions etc. Also there are definitions and examples of different adverbs-modifiers, adverbials, etc. The ppts also cover the time,place, manner etc. of adverbs and their use. Finally, complete answer keys are provided for the 6 accompanying handouts/tasks.
