Some students confuse adjectives and adverbs. If this is the case for your students, consider devoting a lesson to clarifying the purposes of these parts of speech. Say a word aloud and ask students to decide if it is an adjective, adverb, or both. This is a great warm up activity and will help you determine how much time you will need to spend helping your students learn the difference. Another great way to practice parts of speech is to do a mad libs activity. On the first worksheet, students have to think of words that match the parts of speech and once they have completed that, they can use their words to fill in the blanks on the second worksheet which contains a story. Doing this activity will help you decide whether or not your students are confusing adjectives and adverbs.
