ISHAMPOO Book Major Grade Due____________________________

We will create the flip book in class. There are 7 separate tabs worth 10 points each. Each tab should include the literary element, definition, two examples (each in a sentence), and an illustration to go with each example. Both examples can be made up or found in a book. Please see class examples if you have any questions. Idiom – a word or phrase that is not taken literally, an expression
