Week 6 Spelling and Grammar Focus - Adverbs

Adverbs tell us more about verbs. Adverbs often end in 'ly'. E.g. I walked carefully.

Spelling Rule: 
- If the word ends with a short y, change y to i before you add ly.
- If the word ends with a long y, just add ly.

Core Spelling Words:
sadly
loudly
slowly
nicely
rudely
quickly
quietly
happily
crossly
kindly

We encourage you to point out adverbs when you are talking with your children! :-)
