CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RL.7.4CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RL.7.4 Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in a text, including figurative and connotative meanings; analyze the impact of rhymes and other repetitions of sounds (e.g., alliteration) on a specific verse or stanza of a poem or section of a story or drama. Common Core Standard I Can Statement I can determine the meaning of puns and idioms as used within a sentence.

Idioms are cultural expressions and can be confusing because often times the saying has nothing to do with what the phrase actually means.

The next three slides contain examples of common idioms. Read the sentence for the idiom and think about what it means. After you have thought of what you think it means, click ahead to see if you are correct. 1.Ace Up Your Sleeve 2.Achilles’ Heel 3.Add Fuel to the Fire Examples

“I don’t know how Austin will get his parents to take him to the game, but I’m sure he has an ace up his sleeve.” Meaning: a surprise or secret advantage, especially something tricky Origin: Cheating card players could keep a valuable card up their sleeve (usually an Ace) and pull it out when no one was looking to win the game. It would work well unless all four of the Aces were currently in play. Ace Up Your Sleeve

I’m an All-Conference football player, but kicking is my Achilles’ Heel. Meaning: the one weakness, fault, flaw, or vulnerable spot someone has Origin: Achilles, a fictional character in Homer’s The Iliad, was dipped in the River Styx as a baby making any part of him that touched the water invincible. However, his heel was not touched by the water as that is where his mom held Achilles to dip him in the water. Achilles was a great warrior, but one day would fall in battle when a poison arrow hit his one weak spot, his heel. Achilles’ Heel

“My parents were already mad with me, but when I brought home a failing report card it really added fuel to the fire.” Meaning: to make a bad situation worse; to do or say something that causes more trouble, makes someone angrier Origin: Adding fuel to a fire makes it burn hotter and larger than it previously had. With this saying, fire represents trouble and anything you add to it is the fuel that makes it worse. Add Fuel to the Fire

Puns are a humorous use of words that involves a word or phrase that has more than one possible meaning

Read the pun and think about what it may mean or what double meanings it may have. Examples Two peanuts are walking down the road; one was assaulted. When you think you know the double-meaning, click to see if you are right. Assaulted could mean attacked; with peanuts it could mean that one was a salted.

Read the pun and think about what it may mean or what double meanings it may have. Examples “People are choosing cremation over traditional burial. It shows that they are thinking out of the box.” When you think you know the double-meaning, click to see if you are right. Thinking outside of the box means that you are thinking untraditionally. In this case it could also mean that you are thinking outside of the coffin (a type of box)
