\nIndex…………………………………………………58  \nldiom of the Week  \nIdiom of the Week is designed to introduce children to idioms so that theywill begin listening for them and making them a part of their everydaylanguage.An idiom is a commonly used expression that means somethingdifferent from what it appears to mean.If something is “a piece of cake,”for example,it is not literally a piece of cake;it is something that is easy.The English language is filled with idiomatic expressions,and knowingwhat idioms mean is an important part of a child's growing knowledge andfluency with the language.Idioms can be especially difficult because thereare two levels of meaning:the literal level and the idiomatic level.  \nRecent research has established that children at the same grade level canhave vastly different vocabularies and oral language skills.Some childrencome from language rich environments where words and their meanings areexplained to them daily.Other children's environments are languagedeprived.Still others speak a language other than English at home.Idiom ofthe Week and its sister book Word of the Day(Primary Concepts,2006)help  \nyoung children learn words and expressions orally in the primary grades sothat they will be able to understand what they read in 3rd grade and above.  \nLike Word of the Day,Idiom of the Week is comprised of short oral activities.You can easily combine the two.For example,you could introduce a wordeach day Monday through Thursday and then finish with an idiom onFriday.There are more than enough idioms in this book to introduce oneper week for the entire year.You can work through the book,starting with“get the show on the road”and ending with“wrap it up,”or pick andchoose lessons.  \nMore important than knowing the mean","cbCaiq2RnRPCHPv7","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiq2RnRPCHPv7","pdf",2376414,76,"English","# Getting Started\n# Word Story\n# Talk About It\n# Make It Meaningful\n# Next Steps\n# Word Jar\n#
