Three slimy snails crept by
I think its "slimy" is that correct?

Nope. Slimy describes snails, right? Therefore it must be an adjective.
so crept! right?
Anonymous -- you know nothing about parts of speech. Do not tell this student the wrong answers.

Crept is not an adverb.
so if they crept... (what they did) then they did it... nearby? maybe?
I've checked two of your guesses. You're on your own now. Please do not post this question again.
