REALLY ROBOTIC ADVERBS You are required to build a robot that can do almost anything you wish. You must include a name for your robot, and it must have at least 10 SPECIAL features. This robot design should serve many purposes. Each special feature needs to be thoroughly described using at least ONE ADVERB per feature. Therefore, you should have 10 complete sentences answering: Where? When? In what way? And to what extent? with each sentence containing at least one adverb. Use the practice worksheet to help guide you to identify adverbs, and then expand your knowledge of adverbs using the textbook or the classroom workbooks. Once you have designed and built your own robot, you must follow your examples and write at least two paragraphs explaining HOW this robot can help you with your life. Be creative and remember to UNDERLINE ALL ADVERBS. You might use a separate page to draft your writing, but make sure to write a final, perfect copy. You can choose to create a three dimensional robot or a clearly understandable and labeled picture of your robot. You may work with a partner but all requirements are doubled if you choose to work as a team. You and your partner will earn the same grade, but you must design 20 examples instead of ten, 20 complete sentences, and four follow up paragraphs if working as partners. What is an adverb? An adverb is a part of speech that describes or modifies a verb, an adjective, another adverb, clause, or sentence. Adverbs answer the questions "How?", "When?", "Where?", "Why?", "In what way?", "How much?", "How often?", "Under what condition", "To what degree?" The easiest adverbs to recognize are those that end in -ly. Some adjectives end with -ly also but remember that adjectives can modify only nouns and pronouns. Adverbs modify everything else. An adverb modifies a verb He walked quickly. ('quickly' modifies verb 'walked') I accepted new task willingly. ('willingly' modifies verb 'accepted') Mike snored melodically. ('melodically' modifies verb 'snored') An adverb modifies an adjective They were really unhappy. ('really' modifies adjective 'unhappy') My brother is completely fearless. ('completely' modifies adjective 'fearless') I know she is very careful. ('very' modifies adjective 'careful') An adverb modifies an adverb He is almost always hungry. ('almost' modifies adverb 'always') John plays tennis very well. ('very' modifies adverb 'well') You never can work too carefully. ('too' modifies adverb 'carefully') An adverb modifies a clause Perhaps you are correct, but not at first glance. ('perhaps' modifies clause 'you are correct') Surely he will be on time, but I hope not. ('surely' modifies clause 'he will be on time' Rubric Made Using: RubiStar ( http://rubistar.4teachers.org ) Multimedia Project : Really Robotic Adverbs Teacher Name: Mahre Student Name: CATEGORY ________________________________________ 20 15 10 5 Requirements All requirements are All requirements are One requirement met and exceeded. met. was not completely met.
