Objective:

Students will distinguish between the literal and figurative meanings of idioms.

Standards:


CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.L.4.5

Demonstrate understanding of figurative language, word relationships, and nuances in word meanings.


Work Sample Description:

After learning about idioms, we had to pick a random idiom out of a hat. Then, we had to use it in a complete sentence with a capital letter and end mark. We had to draw a figurative picture and a literal picture for it. Part of the assignment was to make sure that it was colored in.

Work Sample:

What was challenging?
It was challenging to figure out what to draw to match the idiom.

What am I most proud of?
I am proud that I was able to finish in time.

What would I do differently next time?
I would pick an idiom that was more challenging and harder.
