Daily

Hello Teachers,

One day in my class the teachers gave a word "day" and asked to make an adjective from this and use it in a sentence.

The adjective is "daily" for the word "day". One boy wrote a sentence using this as

1.I do my home work daily.

The said that it is correct. I told the boy that "daily" in this sentence is functioning as a adverb.

Is it corret?

Thanks
