Vocab words for April 1st

Instead of vocab words this week, we are going to learn proverbs! You need to be able to spell "proverb" and define the word, and for the others, I will give you the proverb, and you will need to write down what it means.

proverb - a short, common, wise saying that gives advice or states a rule about life.

Birds of a feather flock together - people with similar personalities or interests tend to spend time together.

Don't judge a book by its cover - don't judge people or things by their appearances.

Great oaks from little acorns grow - large or great things often start out small.

Look before you leap - you should consider carefully what might happen before you do something.

Never leave till tomorrow that which you can do today - do things as soon as you can.

Small strokes fell great oaks - steady, small actions will eventually accomplish something big.

A stitch in time saves nine - if you repair things as soon as possible, you can avoid having to fix a bigger problem later.
