BODY AND CLOTHING IDIOMS MATCH
A worksheet where students match the image with the idiom, with an answer key which explains the origins of these common idioms. I also read out other idioms orally with gaps (eg "pull your ......up") and the students point to/shake the corresponding body part. Even advanced students love this for idiom practice!

BODY VERBS CARD GAME
A fun body verbs game. Students work in pairs and put all the cards face down (so they cannot see them) on the desk. In turns they pick up a card and follow the instruction (explain the word, or mime �do� the action, eg sneeze). If the other student guesses correctly, they keep the card. The aim is to get as many cards as possible!
