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.
