How to Teach Adverbs of Frequency?
1. Use Percentages to Define Adverbs
-It can be somewhat challenging to define all the adverbs of
frequency at one time.
-One skillful way to introduce all the new vocabulary is
to make a list of all the adverbs the class knows and then add
in the ones they don’t. (Brainstorm vocabulary of adverbs of
frequency)
-As you create the list with student input, write it out on the
board in descending order from frequent to infrequent.
-In discussing the degrees, you can assign the adverbs a
percentage of frequency to give more concrete definition to
the words. Here is an example:
Level: Intermediate
Always, regularly
90 to 100% of the
time (every day or 
several days a week)Usually
Often 70 to 80 % of the
time (one or two days 
a week)Frequently
Sometimes 50% of the time (twice 
a month)Occasionally
Rarely 20-40% of the
time (three times a 
year)Hardly ever
Never
0 to 10% of the
time (once a year, if at 
all)-With this introduction, you can then determine the difference
between words like often and frequently,
or sometimes and occasionally.
-This is a good time to introduce how frequently you do
something.
E.g. Teacher: I rarely visit my mom.
I usually walk my dog.
2. Show Placement and Structure:
-In presenting the placement of adverbs, you’ll want to show
the students and then have them deduct from your examples,
where the adverbs go.
-There are three options, but the first two are the main ways to
express frequency.
-Then you can have your students make a “chain drill” asking
and answering questions about how often they do certain
activities.
Q: How often do you go to the movies?
A:
I occasionally go to the movies.
In between the subject 
and the verb
Sometimes I go to the movies. At the very beginning
I go to the movies rarely.
At the very end (never 
doesn’t fit here)
3. Truth or Lie Game:
-The truth and lie game is a fun and fairly simple way to
practice adverbs of frequency.
-Tell students to think of three facts about their habits, with
one fact being untrue.
-You can also inform students that the point of the game is to
be a good liar.
-They want to fool the rest of the group.
-Once they have devised their 3 facts, they can be written on
the board or stated aloud.
-The rest of the students ask 10 yes or no questions to try to
determine which fact is untrue.
An example could be:
-I  occasionally go shopping at 
Sears.
-I often go fishing on the weekends.
-Sometimes I like to go dancing.
NOTE: You can’t ask yes or no questions that will
directly give you the answer. For example:
Do you go shopping at Sears?  Unacceptable
At the end of the class, students learn the different
vocabulary for adverbs of frequency. They learn how to use
the adverbs in complete sentences, and they practice yes or
no questions.
