Do you know your idioms?
Did you learn some new idioms today?
Greyson Papp and several others kept thinking of new ones throughout the class.
Next time I ask for an example, I won't have to hear about it raining cats and dogs because you'll have so many more at your fingertips. Maybe you'll use...
cool as a cucumber
the bees knees
horsing around
cheesed off
a dime a dozen
a chip on your shoulder
under the weather
water under the bridge
There are a thousand of them!
We had some fun with the quiz, the matching game, and the idiom stories. I have one more thing we'll try tomorrow. You'll need a fresh, original one (one not discussed in class already). We'll be idiom experts by spring break.
Battle of the Book is tomorrow. Have you read the book? Do you have a team? Will you be participating? Kenneth Oppel is in Mishawaka at this moment! He'll be at the school tomorrow. He might even be asking questions during the battle. Hope you are there.
See you tomorrow.
