B. Developmental Activities
1. Presentation
TEACHER’S ACTIVITY STUDENT’S RESPONSE
And to start, let us define what is adverb of
manner. Everyone, please read Adverbs of manner tell us how something
happens. They are usually placed either after
the main verb or after the object.

Thank you.

In the definition, please highlight the word

HOW. Adverbs of Manner tell us HOW
something happens. It answers the question
HOW. Just like what you did a while ago.
Group 1 sang the song bahay kubo angrily.
So, how did they sang bahay kubo? Yes
Angrily ma’am
Kristel?

2. Discussion

Excatly! They sang it angrily. How about the

group 2? How did they sang the song leron Sadly ma’am
leron sinta? Yes Leomar?

That’s right! They sang it sadly. So the words

there, angrily, sadly, happily and loudly is Adverb of Manner ma’am
what?

Yes, the adverb of manner because it answers

the question HOW. Another is it usually
placed after the main verb or the object. They
sang angrily. What is the main verb in this Sang ma’am
sentence?

Very good! Sang here is the main verb and

 the adverb of manner is placed after sang
which is angrily. I will give you more
examples. Herod, please read our example He swims well.

Thank you. In this example, what is the main

verb? Swims ma’am

Correct. And base on the definition, adverb of

manner is usually placed after the main verb
and the main verb is swim, so what is now the
adverb of manner? Yes Lei? Well ma’am

Exactly! Another example, Angela please

read She spoke slowly

Thank you. So what is the adverb of manner

in this example? Yes Angelo? Slowly ma’am

Can you tell me why? Because it explains how she spoke and it is
placed after the main verb which is spoke

Very well said Angelo! In the next example,

the adverb of manner is placed after the object
or direct object. Ellaine please read He plays the flute beautifully

Thank you. When we say about direct object,

it is a noun or pronoun that receives the action
verb so the object in this example is what?
The flute ma’am
Very good! the flute because it is a noun that
receives the action verb, and the adverb of
manner can be placed after it which is what?

Exactly! Beautifully. Am I clear class? Beautifully ma’am

Yes ma’am!
 Okay. I’ll give you another example. Almi,
please read
He ate the chocolate cake greedily

Thank you. So what is the adverb of manner

in the sentence? Yes Rhed?
Greedily ma’am

Why is that so?

Because it explains how he ate the cake and it
is also placed after the direct object.

That’s very nice of you Rhed. Let us also

remember that, an adverb of manner cannot
be put between a verb and its direct object. So
we cannot put it in between of them. Let’s use
our previous example “He ate the chocolate
cake greedily”. Let’s try to put greedily in
between the verb and direct object “He ate
greedily the chocolate cake”, it sounds
awkward right? Yes ma’am

So this is wrong. We can’t just place the

adverb of manner in between of the verb and
the object. The adverb must be placed either
before the verb (He greedily ate the chocolate
cake) or at the end of the object. Do you have
any questions so far? None ma’am

Alright. How about if there is a preposition in

a sentence, how can we identify or where can
we place the adverb of manner? But who can
define first what is preposition? Yes Janiel?

It is a word or group of words that is used

with a noun or pronoun to show direction,
Very good. Thank you Janiel. So how about location, time
when there is a preposition in the sentence?
 Here is an example. Please read
The child ran happily towards his mother.

Thank you. So the preposition here is the

word towards. If there is a preposition before
the verb's object, you can identify or place the
adverb of manner either before the
preposition or after the object. So in the
example, happily is placed before the
preposition and you can also place it after the
object “The child ran towards his mother
happily”.

Am I being clear to you class? Yes ma’am

Let us remember that adverbs of manner end

in –ly. Exceptions
include well, hard, late and fast.

Here are some more examples of adverbs of

manner. Please read
react angrily, speak
angrily, say something
angrily angrily

play badly, perform

badly badly

sing beautifully, play

an instrument
beautifully beautifully

calmly act calmly, wait calmly

speak carefully, walk

carefully, drive
carefully carefully

clearly speak clearly, explain

 something clearly

correctly spell correctly

pass a test easily, win

fast drive fast, talk fast

well play well, speak well

None ma’am

Thank you. Do you have any questions?

Now let’s proceed to our activity.
