Wise Match Quest

In this worksheet, students read short real-life situations and determine which proverb from the provided Proverb Bank best fits each scenario. They must use context clues, reasoning, and understanding of figurative language to match each situation to the correct life lesson. This task strengthens students’ ability to interpret common sayings and apply them meaningfully to everyday events. It encourages inferencing, comprehension of moral lessons, and recognition of patterns in figurative expressions. By evaluating each scenario carefully, students develop critical thinking and deepen their cultural literacy related to traditional proverbs.
