7-       Use colored pencils to highlight. See the example if needed. Please do it.
8-       Last but not least, reread chapter 24, and record your voice as you read it again. Read it faster this time.

Reminder
Adverbs tell us when, where, how, in what manner, or to what extent an action is performed. An adverb is especially used to describe verbs, but they do not describe nouns.

Adjectives describe nouns by giving some information about an object's size, shape, age, color etc. Some verbs and nouns may function as adjectives. The word fly is a verb, but when the verb is used to describe a noun as in flying machine, the verb fuctions as an adjective.

Organize your homework in a table as shown below. Do your best!

Example that we had in class:

“The house wasn’t nearly large enough for so many people, and life was extremely unconfortable for them all.”

Charlie and The Chocolate Factory. (Chapter #01, p.4).

Adjective
Adverb
Unconfortable is an adjective because it describe the noun “life”.
