2 In the manner of the word
The next slide contains a list of verbs and adverbs. Staff choose a student and secretly give them a verb and an adverb which they will have to mime to the rest of the group, for example “eat” and “slowly.” The group then has to guess which are the correct words. This can also be done in smaller groups or if you do come up with an alternative, please let me know!
