Students each pick an idiom to illustrate. They receive 2 copies of a shamrock-shaped sheet of white construction paper. On the first sheet, they draw a picture of what the idiom sounds like it means. On the inside sheet they write the idiom and a definition with an original sentence. The two shamrocks are backed by a larger green shamrock.
Students learn each other's idioms through a game.
Each students writes the definition of their idiom on an index card. The cards are placed face down on the table. Students each pick a card and try to match it with the correct idiom. Students take their idioms to a mainstream class. They take turns holding up their pictures for classmates to guess what the idiom is.
