Complete It

Worksheet Description

This worksheet presents a list of incomplete idiomatic expressions for students to complete. Each idiom starts with a phrase, leaving the student to supply the missing word or words to finish the expression correctly. For example, students must complete phrases such as “Your guess is ____” and “He stole my ____.” The exercise consists of twelve such idioms, each numbered and followed by a blank line for the student to write in the answer.

The purpose of this worksheet is to reinforce students’ knowledge of common English idioms by having them recall and complete each one. It challenges their memory and understanding of these expressions, which often have meanings not immediately apparent from the words themselves. This activity enhances the students’ ability to use idiomatic language correctly, an important skill for effective communication. Moreover, it helps students to appreciate the nuances and cultural aspects of the English language, making them more proficient and confident in their use of the language.
