-Show the different spelling types and the adverbs that have the same form as the adjectives.

Angry angrily happy happily
fast fast slow slowly
good Well bad badly
sudden suddenly nice nicely
noisy noisily quiet quietly
hard hard soft softly
careful carefully careless carelessly
polite politely rude rudely
quick quickly loud loudly
-next have the students fill out the sentences by speaking first and then writing in the answers.
-they should switch roles of reading the sentence and thinking of the adverb to answer with.

[2] -Have s/s in pairs or small groups using "Opposites"

-partner A reads the sentence from the paper as it is (no changes)
-partner B listens only (don't look at the paper) and changes the adverb to the opposite
and repeat the sentence with the new opposite adverb substituted in.
