Seriously, I am on top of the world,,,,it's FRIDAY:) Not that I don't love my cherubs but I am seriously worn out this week.....we have been working on our writing and all the creativity skills that make wonderful papers..we've done similes, metaphors, and now we are learning idioms. These are a little tougher...especially for my language and ELL kiddos. Some of them take the idioms so literally. I introduced idioms with the book Raining Cats and Dogs.
Once I finished that we discussed them ALOT and then I let them make a 4 square. (yep, we're drawing again:) ) Each box had to have:
- an idiom written
- the literal picture
- then what the idiom really means
They turned out pretty cute and I think they are slowly starting to get it:)

Great for an intro to idioms as well as lots of fun examples with pics:)
