Idiom Origins Reading with Review Exercise worksheet
A shocking and humorous explanation of how some common idioms came about. I suggest passing around one copy and having twelve students read one paragraph each aloud. The exercise that accompanies the reading can then offer a way to check how well the students listened and understood the article. After the students have completed the exercise, pass out copies of the article to each student to allow them to check their answers.
