Here's a hands-on, creative way for your students to practice differentiating between hyperboles and idioms! This is an engaging print-and-go activity. Students begin by reading sentences in glasses. If the sentence contains an idiom, they color the liquid in their glass yellow (for idiom-ade). If the sentence in the glass contains a hyperbole, they color the liquid in the glass brown (for hyperbol-tea). The finished products make a unique bulletin board or fun school hallway display! It can also be used as a novel entry in an interactive notebook! HERE'S WHAT YOU GET: TWO WORKSHEETS- Students read the 16 sentences written on the glasses and determine whether each contains an idiom or a hyperbole. They write I or H at the bottom of each glass to display their answer. A PAGE OF BLANK GLASSES- Students can write their own idioms and hyperboles on this page! Answer keys CRAFTIVITY IMAGES- This page includes the title box and the lemonade stand image. Student-friendly instructions (with photos!!) that detail how to assemble the craftivity. Additional notes for the teacher with explanations on materials that need to be gathered and additional instructions. TWO TEACHING POSTERS- Both contain the term (idiom or hyperbole), a definition, an example sentence, and an image. Check out the PREVIEW! Here's what teachers like you have to say about using this idioms and hyperboles activity with their students: ⭐️ Alicia G. said, "Fun resource that my students enjoyed.
