                                               LN- Narrative & Dialogues

               Learning Objective:

               By the end of the lesson, students will be able to identify and use simple adverbs in narratives
               and dialogues to describe how, when, and where actions happen.

                 Introduction:


                   1.  Begin with a quick review of verbs (action words).

                   2.  Introduce adverbs as words that describe verbs – they tell how, when, or where an
                       action happens.

                   3.  Use simple, clear examples on the board:

                          o  How: She runs quickly.


                          o  When: He arrived yesterday.

                          o  Where: The cat sleeps here.

                   4.  Ask students to identify the adverb in each sentence and explain what it tells us.


                 Narrative & Dialogue Integration

                   1.  Mini Writing Task:
                       Students write a short 3–4 sentence narrative or dialogue using at least three
                       different adverbs (one for how, when, and where).
                       Example:

               “I looked around nervously. The door creaked open slowly. I stepped inside, not knowing
               what I'd find. It was midnight.”

                   2.  Sharing:
                       Have students read their mini-stories or dialogues aloud in pairs or to the class.
                       Encourage expressive reading to highlight the adverbs.
