Idioms


 * Idioms: When Words Mean Something Else Entirely**

Idioms are phrases that mean more than their words put together. If you take them word for word, they might not make much sense! Idioms are a little like puzzles: try imagining a picture or a situation that the phrase suggests, and guess at the meaning from there. (from __World Almanac for Kids__)

Fun with Idioms:
 * Create a Match Game. Write idioms on separate cards. Then, on other cards write their definitions. Flip the idioms and definitions upside down, mix them up, and then lay them out in rows. Just like in the game "Memory," flip up one card at a time and look for the card that is the match to the card you flippped. If you find the matching pair, then continue playing. If not, then turn them upside down again. It's the next player's turn.
