## Workshop 2

Workshop | Adverbs & Adjectives

Time | 30 minutes

After this you are going to work on your article.

A | The Adverb Game
Time: 5 minutes

Those of you that are familiar with the game Halli Galli, will already have a basic understanding of how this game works.
Form groups of three. Two of you will play the game and one of you will be the judge. The judge should have a dictionary available.
You'll be handed three decks of cards with words on them. Some of them will be adverbs, others will be adjectives.
Pick one deck and divide it between the two players.

The players do not look at the cards. Instead they hold them in their hands, face down. They take turns flipping a card onto a common pile. If a card has an adverb on it, slap the pile. The first one to slap the pile and to be correct (this is where the judge comes in to see if it really is an adverb) wins all the cards in the pile. The one with the most cards at the end is the winner.

Get a new deck of cards, choose a different judge and play the game until your time is up.

B | The Longest Sentence

Time: 15

Remain in your groups of three. A short sentence shall be written on the board. It doesn't contain any adjective or adverbs yet.
It'll be up to you to add those. Every round you pick one person from your group to come up to the board and roll a die (dobbelsteen). If you roll an even number (two, four or six) you have to add an adjective to the sentence.
If you roll an odd number (one, three or five) you have to add an adverb to the sentence.
The word has to make sense and added in the correct location or you won't gain a point.
If a group fails to come up with another word for the sentence, the last group to add a word gains a point.
We start over with a new sentence and play until one team reaches five points. This team will be the winner.
