Then, have them find their partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are also practice worksheets to accompany your learning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For one, students will find a picture that they will write the idiom for. Next, they identify the meaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One page has students draw their own pictures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The final pages will have students record and explain idioms from the cards provided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-white-color has-vivid-green-cyan-background-color has-text-color has-background has-medium-font-size\">You can download this free resource here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecurriculumcorner.com\/thecurriculumcorner456\/wp-content\/pdf\/language\/idiom%20match.pdf\">Language Download<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking for other language resources to add to your classroom?
