The purpose of the Illustrated
Everyday Expressions with Stories
series is to introduce English language
learners to common idioms
through humorous examples and
illustrations. The lessons in this book
will both entertain and enlighten students
while providing exposure to
how each idiom can be used in a variety
of contexts.
Each lesson of this book begins
with a list of twenty target idioms.
The idioms are arranged alphabetically
throughout the book to help
students reference the idioms for
later use. After completing all the
units in the book, students may continue
to use Illustrated Everyday
Expressions with Stories series as a
humorous illustrated dictionary of
common idioms.
Within each lessons, target idioms
are first defined for students. The definitions
may explain the idiom in
simple terms or use synonyms or
other idioms to build a student's
understanding of the meaning underlying
each idiom. Each definition is
then followed by sample sentences
and short dialogs using the idiom in
context. Finally, idioms are illustrated
with humorous illustrations which
can help build a memorable picture
of each idiom's usage in the reader's
mind.
Following the definitions and
examples of the target idioms is an
exercise page for students to practice
their understanding of idioms from
the lesson. These pages include
matching exercises and a multiplechoice
exercise to practice both
idioms learned in each lesson along
with recycled idioms from previous
lessons. For this reason, students are
encouraged to progress through the
book in the order the lessons are presented
to be sure they have covered
all of the idioms used for the exercise
pages.
The final page of each lesson presents
an international folktale incorporating
the idioms presented in the
lesson. These folktales give students
additional exposure to idiom usage in
context, as well as providing extended
reading practice along with an
entertaining presentation of the target
idioms. Teachers using Illustrated
Everyday Expressions with Stories 1
in the classroom can use the folktales
as a springboard for discussion of
similar stories within the cultures
represented in the classroom.
The Illustrated Everyday
Expressions with Stories series provides
students a with a useful
approach to learning common
English idioms. Students will also
have fun in the learning process. We
hope that you enjoy using Illustrated
Everyday Expressions with Stories.
