Use the template as a reference. I always enlarge it at the copier. Teacher: Look ! This is a house. (Trace the house shape with your finger) Students: This is a house. ( Students trace the house shape with their finger) Teacher: This is my house. What color is it ? Students: It´s blue. Give each child a house picture and have them color the house in two different colors. When finished, they come to the front and tell the class about their house. Students: This is my house. It is green and yellow. Place each house on the board or wall and count with the children how many houses are there. Give each child a colored house. Teacher: Whose house is this ? Student: Peter´s. Teacher: What color is Peter´s house ? Student: It´s green. Teacher: Show me the window. Show me the door. What number is Peter´s house ? Student: three. Take a look on how to use the house template. 1 Make a house on the board with the shapes. There´s a teacher´s version slightly bigger templates. Teacher: The roof is a triangle. The house is a rectangle. The door is rectangle. The windows are circles. Invite the children to make their own house with the shapes and present it to their table group. And now, have the students name the rooms in the house. Use the flashcard worksheet. Have the children color each room in one color. Name the rooms of the house in random order and the children point to each one as they hear the word. Teacher: bathroom, livingroom, bedroom, kitchen. Have your own set ready and use it as flashcards on the board. Teacher: The living room is orange. The kitchen is yellow. The bedroom is green. The bathroom is blue. Kindergarten Children can recognize the rooms of the house. Teacher: Show me the bedroom. Name a room. Students say the color. Teacher: Green ! Students: living room ! Do the opposite. Teacher: Kitchen ! Students: orange. Students cut the words and play matching the word to the picture. Place the rooms of the house flashcards around the class. Name a student and have him/her walk to the part of the house of his/her preference. Teacher: Molly, Walk to a room of the house. Continue with 3 more students. There can´t be more than one student in each place. Teacher: Molly, Where are you ? Molly: I am in the kitchen. Let´s invite the family members to the home theme. Place the family members on the board. Ask who they are. Teacher: Who´s this ? Students: It´s Brother. Teacher: Brother is in the kitchen. Students place the family member in the corresponding part of the house. It can be turned into a Family Poster. My House worksheets for Kindergarten.Hold a family cutout on one hand and a house part on the other. Say a sentence. Teacher: Mommy is in the bedroom. Hold another family puppet on one hand and a house part on the other. Have the students come up with a sentence. Students: Daddy is in the bathroom. There´s a set of family cutouts for the Teacher. Furniture worksheets for kindergarten. Place all the rooms of the house worksheets, previously cut on the board and review each one. Place all the furniture on the opposite side of the board and present the new words. Grab a chalk or marker and match all the furniture to each room with the children. Have the children name the furniture in the room. Teacher: What´s in the bedroom ? Students: Bed, closet. Have them name all the items they can remember. Teacher: Where is the bed ? Students: The bed is in the bedroom. House cocktail. Have the children grab only one flashcard. At your signal they stand up and walk around finding a room or furniture partners. They must stand together holding their cards. Teacher: Bedroom ! Students : Here ! Teacher: Name the furniture in your room. Students: Bed, closet. (Shows the cards). Furniture mix match. Place the furniture in parts of the house that doesn´t belong. Teacher: The bed is in the bathroom. Students: NO ! Show the no thumb. Point to each flashcard and ask questions: Teacher: Is it a toilet ? Students: yes, it is. ( Have the students use their YES puppets) Teacher: Is it a closet? Students: No, it isn´t. ( Have the students use their NO puppets) Student flashcards Pattern. Call out two students with a stove and two with a closet. Have them come to the front to make a pattern. Teacher: Carlos, come with the sofa. Stand here. Teacher: Ana, come with the sofa. Stand here. Teacher: Rose, come with the bed. Stand here. Teacher: Lily, come with the bed. Stand here. Class: Sofa,sofa,bed,bed. Make as many patterns as you wish. It can be an: ABB pattern, ABC pattern,ABCB pattern. House bingo. Have the students complete the Bingo grid with 4 flashcards that his/her choice. Prepare a set for yourself to call out Bingo. Place them in a bag / an envelope or make the tags and place them in a book ring. I printed each set onto colored construction paper. Pull out a flashcard and call its name. Teacher: red toilet! Have the student place a bean on it. The first student to place the 4 beans is the winner and calls out BINGO ! Take a look at the video: Sort the furniture by room. Where is the family and pets ? Teacher: The dog is on the bed. ( Place the dog cutout on the bed) Keep on saying sentences and placing the animals on the furniture or around the house rooms. Take a look (VIDEO): Give instructions to a designated student for putting a piece of furniture or pet in a room. Teacher: Yuri, put the cat on the sink. Continue giving similar instructions to other students. Then, ask questions. Teacher: Where is the bird ? Students : It´s on the toilet. Give some incorrect sentences and see if the students notice. Teacher: The bird on the bed. Students : NO!!! Have them show their NO puppet. It is on the sofa. Have students repeat and do the same on their worksheets. The House unit Worksheets VIDEO: Students can draw a toy or a pet on any piece of furniture. They can come up to the front to describe their drawing. Graph the drawings. Teacher: The bird is on the sofa. The students who have done that hold up their drawing. Make a graph on the board. Teacher: One, two, three students! Here´s another way to use the worksheets. These are three of them. The rooms fit in the house. Students can glue them. Then assign an animal for each room. I glued my house to the back of a box so it could stand. And the toys can be around the house. And the flashcards can´t be missed.
