*********** The lesson in this class will repeat every 25 weeks*************

Students should bring a pen or pencils and a spiral-bound notebook or looseleaf paper to class.


Idioms make a language rich and colorful. Idioms convey meanings in a special way. In this class students will learn 5 idioms each week. Through short teacher explanations, games and activities students will learn the history of the idiom, what it means and how to use it correctly. 

Here is a tentative break down of the structure of a class:

1)  Icebreaker--Teacher and students will introduced themselves.
2)  Students will learn the meanings of several idioms. 
3)  Students will learn the origin and history of the idioms.
4)  Students will write the idioms  and the definitions in their notebook.
5)  Students will complete activities using each idiom.
6)   Students will be encouraged to the idioms in a conversation.. 
7)  Students will be given ideas for optional homework activities using the day's words.

Here are some examples of idioms that will be learned in this class:
The early bird gets the worm  
A hard nut to crack 
To have bigger fish to fry 
To jump the gun 
To knock someone's socks off

Licenciatura desde Univerity of South Carolina

My name is Maria. I was born in South Carolina, USA. When I was 7 years old my family moved to Latin America. When I graduated from high school, I returned to the US to attend university  I have been married for 39 years and have 3 adult children and 6 grandchildren. 

I have a Bachelor of Science Degree from the University of South Carolina and have been a teacher for over 25 years.  Much of my teaching experience has been teaching reading. I have led children's book clubs and read aloud groups. I have taught reading comprehension and grammar, history and American Government to elementary and middle school students. I am bilingual and I have taught Spanish to children and adults for many years. I also have many years experience teaching ESL in person and online. 

I love to read. I also love to travel. I've been to the driest desert in the world and the southern most city on the globe. I've climbed a mountain in Central America where you can see both the Atlantic and the Pacific Ocean,  and I have kissed the Blarney Stone.  I have done many exciting things. I have flown in a glider and a hot air balloon and I have parasailed. But I will never, EVER, bungee jump! 

Students in my classes will have fun while they work hard improving their academic skills. I have a lot of experience teaching children online, and I know how to keep students engaged in the lesson.  I am a patient teacher. Children matter. Their ideas and opinions matter, and their success matters. I want to hear what my students have to say.  I make sure they know I am proud of them.
