Here's the trick to make idioms stick! Many commercially available resources provide ILLUSTRATIONS of the literal meaning of the idiom. While this may be entertaining RESEARCH indicates that children who:➼ LISTEN to the idiom➼ VISUALIZE the figurative language➼ DRAW what they literally heard followed by teaching the meaning andusing it in context increases long-term learning.Hearing LossChildren with typical hearing, learn idioms through incidental exposure without having to be taught. Whereas, children who are deaf and hard of hearing often require explicit and direct instruction with higher-level language like idioms. Idioms are challenging for children that process information literally and have a concrete or limited vocabulary.

re approaching when decorating a tree is a tradition for many. This worksheet can be used as a warm-up to the school day, in-between activities, for a group of students, or for individuals.In my many years of working as an educational interpreter, I noticed that it was not unusual for deaf and hard-of-hearing students who were behind their peers struggle with answering questions that began with: "What's your favorite . . .?" Often, they would answer "yes" or not be sure how to answer. The beauty of this type of worksheet is that there is no wrong answer, it is short-yet-effective, and it exposes students to a variety of categories and vocabulary within a specific domain. If time allows, it can open up a discussion on the topic. As a bonus, I added an extra page full of discussion prompts and fun facts. Over time, this type of worksheet will help students learn how to answer this common question that seems easy on the surface, but not for those who do not have the background knowledge and vocabulary necessary to answer it.The thumbnail for this “What’s Your Favorite?” series has a violet purple background - violet for vocabulary! Looking for fast and easy vocabulary building worksheets? Look for the violet thumbnails! Like the "What's Your Favorite...?" worksheet series? Leave me a comment so that I know you would like more!Debbie Love, M.Ed.
