Hi, Teachers!,
Many times in class, our students ask us "How can I say 'hacer la vista gorda' in English?", "Fat sight?", "Oh, no, no, ... they say: "Turn a blind eye".
Becuase of that, it's very constructive and effective if you use a small white board in class and every week, you write down a new English idiom for your students.Even more, I'm going to propose you to have a look at the following list.
Obviously, you can create your own list of idioms and hang these later as a poster.

hacer falta to be lacking hacer la vista gorda to turn a blind eye
hacer las maletas to pack
hacer lo posible to do one's best
hacer muecas to make faces
hacer pinta to play hookey
llorar a lágrima viva to cry like a baby
llorar a mares to cry a lot
lo hecho hecho está what is done is done
lo mismo da it's all the same
manos a la obra get to work
meter la pata to mess up
muerto de cansancio dead tired
ni pensarlo don't even think about it
no poder dar crédito a los oídos to not believe my ears
por consguiente as a result
por lo tanto therefore
por resultas de as a result of
por su cuenta all by himself
prender fuego a to set fire to
puesto que since
