Idioms
There is one extra idiom
(written in bold) under each task. Write all five idioms and their meanings on a piece of notebook paper and turn it in with the other assignments.
Task 1: Use the following Web Resource:
http://www.eslgamesplus.com/idiomatic-expressions-common-rally/
"It takes two to tango."
Task 2: In groups create a conversation with a least 4 idioms, where you show clear
evidence of the understanding of the idiomatic expressions selected.
Task 3: Watch
the video: Amelia Bedelia by Peggy
Parish See if
you can spot the idioms! Exchange your findings!!!!
It will be hard to "keep a
straight face" when
you listen/read Amelia
Bedelia.
Task 4: Choose your favorite idiom from any of the
resources (websites or books). Using white paper and draw a picture to represent your idiom. DO NOT WRITE THE IDIOM OR ITS MEANING ON THE PICTURE SIDE. Instead, use a pencil to neatly write the
idiom and its meaning on the back of the picture.
It's time to "pull out all
the stops" to get a
terrific grade on this project.
Task 5: Click on Web Resource #4 and enter "Eye on
Idioms." Print 1 copy of each worksheet (1-7) and staple them together. Use Web Resources #5 and #6 to discover the idioms and their meanings. If necessary, you may also
consult the Dictionary of

tunnel" yet?
I bet "you're on top of the
world" now that
you've finished this WebQuest!
