other age groups and levels as well. Here
are some suggestions:
Brainstorm jobs to find out what students
know about them and complete the chart
with the information they provide.

the tools used. Elicit some example
sentences and write them on the board

Jobs and their tools
(Primary/Secondary)
students can play a memory game that
includes cards about jobs and cards about
the tools used in those jobs. The game
involves putting the cards downwards in
two piles: one for the job cards and the
other for the tool cards. The players take
turns to turn over two cards, one from
each pile. If both cards match up, the
player wins the cards. It is important that
while the students turn the cards over, they
mention the jobs and tools that come up so
as to check they know the vocabulary they
‘were taught, (For this game you can use
the picture cards on pages 14 and 15.)
(Making a graphic organiser
(Primary/Secondary)
If you want to check prior knowledge, this
is a good way to do it. Draw a graph on
the board like the following:
sos | pace | activity | Toot
sentences and write them on the board.
‘Ask students to use the sentences, or to
‘make their own, in a picture dictionary
divided into subjects. They can draw the
pictures, and write the definitions
and example sentences.
‘The Carpenter makes furniture.
He uses his saw to cut wood.
(Two Games
1. Which tool is it?
‘You will need: tools and a
decorated box with a hole on
one side,
For this game you have to
ask children to bring some
tools to school. Show the
tools to the group and ask
students to name them.
2, The Mime Game (to practise actions)
You will need: small strips of paper with
the names of jobs and a plastic
bag,
Divide the class into two
‘groups. Ask a student from
one team io come to the front
and take a card from the bag.
He must mime an activity for
his own team to guess the
job. If the guess is correct,
the team gets a point. If
not, the other team can
give the answer. The
‘winner is the (eam with
more points.
