My grade 3 student reached out to me regarding her confusion about adverbs and verbs in a passage.

I guided and helped her but this particular sentence is confusing me

They look like a strange mix of a beaver and a duck! They waddle when walking on land but when they are under water they swim gracefully

walking is a verb here but am I right in considering waddle as an adverb? or it's also a verb in this sentence?
 
It's a verb.

If you're an English teacher, please amend your profile to say so.

How old are grade 3 students in Pakistan?
