Adverbial Clauses
Objective: The worksheet aims to teach students how to identify, understand, and correctly use adverbial clauses in English sentences, focusing on recognizing subordinating conjunctions and understanding the relationship between dependent and independent clauses.
Content and Methods: The worksheet covers adverbial clauses and their signal words (subordinating conjunctions such as when, before, because, after, if, until, while, since, although, etc.). It employs multiple methodical approaches including identification exercises where students choose the correct adverbial clause from given options, marking/highlighting signal words within sentences, and sentence reconstruction activities where students rearrange scrambled words to form grammatically correct sentences with adverbial clauses.
Competencies:
- Grammar recognition and application skills
- Sentence structure analysis and comprehension
- Logical sequencing and word order understanding
- Identification of linguistic patterns and signal words
- Syntactic awareness and clause relationship recognition
Target Group and Level: The worksheet is designed for elementary to intermediate English language learners, likely at A2-B1 level.

What are adverbial clauses?
In adverbial clauses we use prepositions. Prepositions are short words that link nouns and pronouns to other words. They can express position/place (e.g. "under the table") and time (e.g. "on Monday") as well as many other things (e.g. "by train"). Prepositions are usually placed before a noun.
