Preparation
Presentation
- The directress writes a simple command in black ink.
- The child reads and executes the command.
- The directress then adds an adverb in red.
- The child reads and executes the command.
- It is observed that the two actions were different.
- Why? The verbs stayed the same, but something was added, i.e. walk//walk slowly.
- This word that changed the way you walked is called an adverb. (adverb: from Latin adverbium - ad, to, beside, and verbum, a word, a verb)
- The adverb is always near the verb just as the adjective is always near the noun.
- Symbols: We recall the verb was symbolized by a red ball.
- The adverb also is symbolized by a ball, only smaller and orange.
- Only the verb is red, because the verb is energy, like a fire.
- Since the adverb stays near the verb, it gets some of the heat of the fire and it is orange.
- The verb is larger than the adverb because it is more important, just as the noun was larger than the adjective.
- For the adverb we use a small orange circle.
- The child places the symbols on the slips above the corresponding words.
- The child then tries to change the positions of the words by tearing the strip, but finds that it usually sounds right when the adverb follows the verb.
- Using the simple one word commands, the children may write their own, adding adverbs.
- These are then executed and written in their journals with symbols.
