Ideas for Idiom Activities

Here are four idiom activites I’ve used.

Researching Idiom Origins

Learning about idioms is simply a fun activity that students will enjoy far more than writing spelling lists out five times each. Researching idiom origins is a great example of assigning gifted students less, but more complex work than their grade-level peers.

Weekly Idiom Lists

I love using idioms in the classroom. They’re a great way to replace dull spelling lists and truly build students’ vocabulary and comprehension.
