Description
This goal-themed idioms & proverbs deck introduces students to 30 idioms/proverbs. Each card has the idiom or proverb along with its meaning. Students can read or click/tap the audio icons to listen. Each card also has an image that either gives a hint of the idiom/proverb's meaning or represents the literal meaning. This is an introductory deck. It's best followed by my GOALS idioms & proverbs DEFINITIONS deck, where students can check their understanding of the idioms/proverbs. *Note: This is based on my GOALS idioms & proverbs resource sold in my TpT store. I used the same idioms/proverbs, the same definitions, and the same images.
