Teacher Resources
Teaching Notes
Before starting, read all sentences aloud together. Ask students to predict what type of adverb (how/when/where/how often) each blank needs before looking at the word bank. This builds inference skills.
Vocabulary
Word Bank: A list of words to choose from.
Complete: To finish or fill in.
Common Mistakes
- Picking the first adverb that "sounds okay" without reading the full sentence
- Not crossing off used words and accidentally reusing them
- Placing time adverbs in manner slots
Differentiation

ChallengeCover the word bank and fill in blanks independently, then compare with the bank.
Discussion Questions
- Was any blank tricky? Could two words fit?
- What clues in the sentence helped you choose?
