Idioms and Adages
About Idioms and Adages
Fourth grade Language Arts practice on idioms and adages, sayings that mean something different from their words. Students use sentence clues to work out meanings, choose what a saying means, and match meanings to sayings. Questions can be read aloud.
There are 3 levels of 10 questions each, from easy to challenging. A wrong answer gets a hint, a second miss shows the answer, and stars are earned at the end. Nothing is timed, and no sign-in is needed.
