Notes for teachers
Use this test after teaching how adverbs of manner are formed, or as a review before an A2 exam. It targets common errors such as 'fastly', 'lately' for 'late', 'hardly' for 'hard', 'good' instead of 'well', and adverbs after linking verbs (e.g. 'tastes deliciously'). As a follow-up, ask students to describe how family members do everyday activities, using one adjective and one adverb for each person.
