Proverbs

By Mark Warner
Age Range: 5 to 11

A number of printable resources, linked to proverbs, are available below. Here are some ideas for using them in the classroom:

  • Put them up on display!
  • Print the examples of proverbs and ask children to explain what they mean.
  • Talk about the proverbs. Have the children heard any of them before? Where did they hear them? Who used them and why?
  • Let children use the examples to make their own 'Book of Proverbs'.
  • Ask children to find other examples of proverbs.
  • Can the pupils find proverbs from other cultures?
  • Think of a story where the moral could be one of the proverbs.
