The Meaning of Idioms 
Assignment #1

For this week's English Skills lesson, we'll be considering the meaning of idioms.

​Review the idiom worksheets in the binder you received onsite. 
  • Choose 5 idioms of your preference: analyze for meaning and create at least 3 ASL translations for each (a total of 15). 
  • In GoReact, record each of your signed idioms, write the initial English idiom in the comment section along side your ASL video
  • This is a group activity - each of you will be able to see one another's idiom translations. Please choose at least 3 other people's idioms and add a video translation comment of your own for the same idiom.
