Parent tips

Ask which word the adjective or adverb describes and why. Then write a new sentence with both. Check the explanation yourself: the website does not assess this parent-led activity.

Source, access and review notes

Choose between adjective and adverb forms in 20 sentence gaps, with check feedback. Supplementary form-choice practice only; not independent modifier identification or sentence expansion.

Parent prompt: “After a few items, ask your child which word the chosen adjective or adverb describes and why. Then ask them to write a new sentence using both an adjective and an adverb. Check these explanations and writing yourself; the website does not assess them.” This parent-led follow-up is not observed website functionality or evidence of independent mastery, and cannot be counted as tested website coverage.

Saved interaction required no login or payment for the quiz; optional membership and programme promotions were present. Access can change. A dismissible email-signup overlay initially blocked input; an adult may need to dismiss it. Do not sign up or supply a child’s email. Adult ESL vocabulary: an adult should preview vocabulary and support reading as needed. The topic age range of 7–8 is not verified site suitability; no child testing was performed. No third-party ad creative was observed in the saved DOM text audit, not an ad-free guarantee or a visual/device-wide audit. No fresh browser, mobile, accessibility or child usability testing was performed for the approval packet. Perfect English Grammar — external resource; no endorsement implied.

Check understanding

  • Choose the correct form: 'The dog is (slow/slowly)' vs 'The dog walks (slow/slowly)'
  • Identify whether a word is modifying a noun (adjective) or a verb (adverb) in a given sentence
  • Expand sentences by adding both an adjective and an adverb: 'The tall boy ran quickly'
“If your child writes "she ran quick" instead of "she ran quickly", can they spot that they need an adverb to describe the running — and fix it themselves?”
