(bright upbeat music) - Hi everyone, My name is Mrs.
Shannon and I'm an ESL teacher in Hillsborough, New Jersey.
I would like to say hello to my ESL students and all of my ESL friends.
(speaks in foreign language) For those of you who speak another language at home, how do you say hi in your language?
Cool, (speaks off the microphone) I miss about my ESL students.
They are constantly teaching me about their languages and cultures too.
So thanks for sharing.
Today's lesson is going to focus on language and vocabulary associated with rooms in house.
We will discuss bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living room.
Now I know the rooms in your home may not look exactly like the rooms I'm going to show you.
You may have more rooms, you may have less rooms, and that's okay because everyone's home is different.
Before we get started you will need some items for this lesson.
Please get whiteboard, marker and an eraser or something you can use as an eraser, like a tissue paper, towel or even an old sock is fine.
If you don't have these items at home, that's okay.
You can use a piece of paper and a pencil.
That's fine too.
Do you know what you're looking for?
All right, go get your items.
(bright upbeat music) Were you able to find the items you were looking for?
Great.
You can put them to the side for now.
We'll be using them again soon.
Okay, let's get started.
We're going to start by listening to a story called, This Is How We Do It written by Matt Lamothe.
I like the story because it shows how people (speaks off the microphone) around the world and it truly shows us how every home is different.
Today we're going to only listen to part of the story, but if you have a chance you should really read the whole thing.
Enjoy.
(upbeat music) - [Narrator] This is How We Do It.
One day in the lives of kids from around the world by Matt Lamothe.
This is me.
My name is Ribaldo, and I'm called Pirineo.
I am from Peru.
I'm 11 old.
This is where I live.
I live in a house my father built in Los Naranjos, a village in the Amazon rain forest.
This is who I live with.
I live with my mom, Sofia, my dad Isaias, and my younger brothers Neyser and Eber, and my little sister Neida.
I also have four older siblings who don't live with us.
This is what I wear to school.
We don't have a uniform.
I usually wear trousers, a T-shirt and a belt with a lion buckle.
This is what I eat for breakfast.
I have fried rice with chicken and peppers, sliced boiled plantains and hot milk.
This is how I go to school.
I walk next to the main road with my younger brothers and sister, sometimes stopping to buy a snack of sweet bread from a fruit stand.
This is my teacher.
I call my teacher Professor Pedro.
He's been teaching for 26 years.
This is how we learn.
Our school is very small.
So the 14 kids in the fifth and sixth grades study in the same room.
We have different subjects each day, and our school ends at one o'clock.
This is how I spell my name.
I write in Spanish using the Latin alphabet.

She's been teaching for four years.
This is how we learn.
We study general awareness and value education as well as subjects like math, Hindi and English.

We have chutney, carrots and potatoes, chapati and yogurt with water to drink.
This is what I do in the evening.
My sister and I play a board game called Carron.
This is where I sleep.
I sleep on a huge bed next to my sister and parents.
Did you like that story?
I know, I wish you did.
Now we're going to move on and talk about rooms in the house.
We'll start by talking about vocabulary associated with the bedroom.
I'm going to say the word first and then you are going to say it after me, okay?
Bedroom, bookcase, window, chair, desk, dresser, drawers, bed.
All right, (speaks off the microphone), we practiced the vocabulary.
Now we're gonna talk a little bit about the vocabulary, okay?
Here we have a chair.
You can sit on a chair, right?
Desk.
What something you can do at a desk,?
Right.
You can do your homework, you can read, write, lots of things you can do at a desk.
Now bookcase, you're right, that holds books, okay?
Now this is a dresser.
Some people might keep their clothes in there or some other things, and these things are called drawers.
When we're talking about one it's a drawer, but if you're talking about lots of them, it needs an s at the end.
So then it's drawers.
How many drawers does this dresser have?
It has four drawers.
You're right, okay?
Here we have a window and a bed.
What can you do in a bed?
You can sleep in a bed, you're right.
Remember those items I asked you to get in the beginning of the video?
Whiteboard, marker or paper and pencil.
Go ahead and take those out now.
We're gonna be playing a little game and I want you to use your memory to write down three things from the room, okay?
Words that we talked about and it can be things that we didn't talk about, but I want you to write down three things.
Are you ready?
Okay, here we go.
(bright upbeat music) Were you able to come up with three things?
Let's look back at the room to see what was in the room.
Okay, so let's take a look at the room again.
So as you can see, we have chair, desk, drawers, dresser, bookcase, window, bed.
So if you wrote down any of those things you are absolutely right, nice job.
Even if you came up with other things you saw in the room, like here, part of the bed I see a pillow, I see books, I see a backpack, a calendar.
So even if you wrote those things, great job.
Now I would like to talk a little bit about prepositions with you.
Prepositions are words to help describe location or where things are, okay?
In the bedroom I'm going to use some examples.
And remember these examples because you are gonna try it later.
On, the pillow is on the bed.
Above, the window is above the bed.
Next to, the bookcase is next to the desk.
Under, the chair is under the desk.
In, there are clothes in the dresser.
Or I could say there are clothes in the drawers, okay?
And again, we're gonna practice those again later.
Now this story takes place in a bedroom, just like the one we visited in house, and it's called The Napping House by Audrey wood, illustrated by Don wood.
There is a house, a napping house, where everyone is sleeping.
Do you like to take naps?
I do sometimes.
And in that house there is a bed, a cozy bed in a napping house where everyone is sleeping.
And on that bed there is a granny, a snoring granny on a cozy bed in a napping house where everyone is sleeping.
Now granny, that's just another word for grandma.
You know, in my language, in Greek we say yiayia for grandma.
How do you say your grandma in your language?
Cool.
And on that granny there is a child, a dreaming child on a snoring granny, on a cozy bed, in a napping house where everyone is sleeping.
And on that child there is a dog, a dozing dog on a dreaming child, on a snoring granny, on a cozy bed in a napping house where everyone is sleeping.
And on that dog there is a cat, a snoozing cat on a dozing dog on a dreaming child, on a snoring granny on a cozy bed, in a napping house where everyone is sleeping.
And on that cat there is a mouse, a slumbering mouse on a snoozing cat, on a dozing dog, on a dreaming child, on a snoring granny, on a cozy bed, in a napping house where everyone is sleeping.
And on that mouse there is a flee.
Can it be a wakeful flea?
On a slumbering mouse, on a snoozing cat, on a dozing dog, on a dreaming child, on a snoring granny, on a cozy bed, in a napping house where everyone is sleeping.
Now wait a minute, a wakeful flea.
Wakeful, that kind of sounds like a word I know.
Wake, awake.
What do you think is gonna happen?
Let's find out.
A wakeful flea Who bites the mouse.
That's not good.
Who scares the cat, who claws the dog, who thumps the child, who bumps the granny, who breaks the bed in the napping house where no one now is sleeping.
Did you like that story?
I wish you did.
Now napping, that is another word for sleeping.
Now we saw lots of other words of things that we do while we're sleeping, right?
Snoring, right?
The grandma was snoring, wasn't she, right?
Next we start dreaming, the dreaming child.
That's something we also do when we sleep, right?
You have different dreams, you think about different things, right?
Next we had dozing.
Sometimes you might doze off, right?
So that's another word for sleeping, right?
You're dozing, and we had the dozing dog.
Next we have snoozing, right?
You take a little snooze.
We have the snoozing cat.
And finally another word for sleeping, we had slumbering, okay?
The slumbering mouse and that poor mouse was bit by that wakeful flea, right?
All right, nice job.
Now we're gonna talk about our next room, the bathroom.
Here we are in the bathroom.
Let's go over the vocabulary just like we did before.
I'll say it first and you're going to repeat after me.
You're gonna say it after me.
Bathroom, shower, bathtub, medicine cabinet.
And you know, for big words like this, sometimes I like to clap it out.
And then this way I can hear all the syllables.
Medicine cabinet.
You try it.
(claps) Big words.
We'll come back to that in a moment.
Mirror, cabinet, cabinets, towel rack.
That might be another one we wanna try clapping out.
Towel rack.
(claps) Nice job.
Toilet, you might be giggling at this one, but everybody uses it.
All right, now we're gonna go back and talk about the words that we just said.
Shower, we use that to take a shower to wash ourselves.
Bathtub, we use to take a bath.
Cabinet, okay, here's one cabinet.
And again, just like our drawers, when there's more than one we add an s at the end.
How many cabinets are there?
There are four cabinets.
Anyone remember what these are called?
We saw them in our room in the bedroom.
The dresser had them.
You're right, those are called drawers, okay?
And there are two drawers.
Here's a mirror.
People like to look in the mirror to see how they look, right?
This whole thing is called a medicine cabinet, and people keep, they typically keep their medicine in the medicine cabinet.
The reason why I have this big circle with the strike through it is because you should never go in the medicine cabinet without permission from an adult, okay?
Towel rack, that holds your towels.
And here is the toilet where you I have to pee or poop.
All right, let's get ready to play another game.
Go ahead and get your items for writing.
Okay, this time I'm going to describe a clue and you are gonna write down the item in the bathroom that you think I'm describing.
Are you ready?
Okay, there you go.
Your hands are dirty.
Where can you wash them?
(bright upbeat music) Let's see what you wrote.
If you wrote sink you're right.
Alright, let's try another one.
Go ahead and erase your board or just go to, you can write the next word underneath, whatever you want to do.
Okay, here's your next clue.
You combed your hair, right?
You combed your hair.
Where can you look to see how your hair looks?
Think about it and write it down.
(bright upbeat music) where can you look to see how your hair looks?
Let's see if you wrote what I wrote.
Did you write mirror, and don't worry about your spelling, if you just sounded out the best you can, right?
Okay, next clue.
When someone asks to use the bathroom, what are they really asking to use?
What item in the bathroom?
Okay, I'll say that again.
When someone asks to use the bathroom, what are they really asking to use?
Like what item in the bathroom?
Go ahead and write it down.
Sound it out the best you can.
Don't worry about spelling.
(bright upbeat music) okay, let's see what you came up with.
Toilet.
Did you write down the same word?
And again, don't worry about your spelling.
Great, nice job.
Remember those prepositions we talked about earlier, the words that help us talk about location or where things are.
We're gonna practice using them again now, okay?
Quick review.
On, under, above, in, next to.
So I'm gonna ask you a question about where things are in this room and I want you to write down your answer.
Are you ready?
Okay, here we go.
Where is the towel?
(bright upbeat music) Let's check our answers.
The towel is on the towel rack.
You could have also said the towel is above the toilet, or you could have said the towel is next the mirror, or the medicine cabinet, okay?
Nice job.
All right, next, where is the mirror?
(bright upbeat music) The mirror is above the sink.
You could have also said the mirror is next to the shower, or the towel rack.
Nice job.
Okay, next, where is the medicine?
(bright upbeat music) The medicine is in the medicine cabinet, okay?
Nice job.
All right, enough with the potty talk.
I don't know about all of you, but I could sure use a brain break.
I love brain breaks, and in my ESL class we love to dance and move.
So let's get up and get moving.
Are you ready?
Let's go (bright upbeat music) ♪Get your body moving ♪ ♪Get your body moving ♪ ♪Get your body moving ♪ ♪Get your body moving ♪ ♪Everybody here let me see you dance ♪ ♪Let me see you dance ♪ ♪Let me see you dance ♪ ♪Dip it now ♪ ♪Dip ♪ ♪Dip ♪ ♪Everybody here let me see you push it ♪ ♪Let me see you push it ♪ ♪Let me see you push it ♪ ♪Push it ♪ ♪Push it real good ♪ ♪Push it real good ♪ ♪Push it real good ♪ ♪Push it real good ♪ ♪Push it ♪ ♪Get your body moving ♪ ♪Get your body moving ♪ ♪Get your body moving ♪ ♪Get your body moving ♪ ♪Everybody here let me see you bounce ♪ ♪Let me see you bounce ♪ ♪Let me see you bounce ♪ ♪Bounce it now ♪ ♪Bounce ♪ ♪Bounce ♪ ♪Bounce it ♪ ♪Bounce it ♪ ♪Bounce it ♪ ♪Bounce it ♪ ♪Everybody here let me see you pull it ♪ ♪Let me see you pull it ♪ ♪Let me see you pull it right now ♪ ♪Pull it ♪ ♪Pull it ♪ ♪Pull it ♪ ♪Pull it ♪ ♪Pull it ♪ ♪Pull it ♪ ♪Pull it ♪ ♪Get your body moving ♪ ♪Get your body moving ♪ ♪Get your body moving ♪ ♪Get your body moving ♪ Oh, welcome back.
Wasn't that great?
I don't know about you, but it felt good to get moving.
All right, now let's talk about our next room.
One of my favorites.
The kitchen.
Okay, and here we are in the kitchen.
And just like before we're gonna to (mumbles), okay?
I'll say it first, you repeat after me.
Kitchen, freezer, fridge, window, sink, dishwasher.
Hey, and you can use our strategy that we used before.
Dish washer.
(claps) Good.
Dish, dishes, cabinet, cabinets, microwave, coffee maker, oven.
Okay, nice job.
A lot of big words in the kitchen.
Alright, so let's go back and talk about them.
All right, so here we have, this whole unit is called a refrigerator, but for short, people like to call it a fridge, right?
In the fridge, that's where you keep food cold.
The freezer however, that's where you keep food really cold.
That's where you keep your frozen items or food that freezes, okay?
Here we have another window, sink.
Now wait a minute, we saw a sink somewhere else in the house.
Do you remember where we saw it?
The bathroom, that's right, okay?
This is a dishwasher, okay?
And it washes the dishes, okay?
One dish, a plate, or a cup or a bowl, that's a dish.
When you're talking about lots of them it changes to dishes, okay?
Unlike our other words, this ends with sh, because it ends with sh we have to add es at the end to make it mean more than one.
Cabinet, that's when we're talking about one and when we're talking about lots of them we add an s at the end to make it cabinets.
Microwave, you can use that to heat up food, okay?
Coffee maker, people like to make coffee.
And here we have the oven, where you can do some cooking or baking, okay?
And you should never use any of these, right?
The microwave oven, dishwasher, you should always ask an adult to help you, okay?
Or you know, leave it to the adult.
Okay, we're going to get ready for our next writing activity.
So go ahead and take out your writing materials.
Do you have them?
Great.
Now this time we're gonna do some comparing and contrasting.
We are gonna talk about how, well, we're gonna write about how some things are same and how they're different.
Let's get started.
Okay, before you do any writing, let's go over the questions.
How are the freezer and the fridge the same.
The freezer in the fridge are the same because they both, and here's where I want you to write your answer.
Wherever you see a question mark that's where I want you to write your answer, okay?
So you don't have to copy these sentences down.
You can if you want, but you don't have to, okay?
So I'll read that again.
How are the freezer and the fridge the same?
The freezer and the fridge are the same because they both, okay?
So that's the first question.
Next question is how are the freezer and the fridge different?
The freezer and the fridge are different.
They are different because the fridge, blank, and the freezer, blank.
So you can talk about how they're different with two different sentences, okay?
Start by talking about the fridge, and then you can talk about the freezer.
Do you understand what to do?
So again, you are just filling in the blanks.
You do not have to copy these if you do not want to, okay?
So go ahead and take some time to fill in your answers.
(bright upbeat music) Okay, let's see what you came up with.
Let's answer the questions together.
How are the freezer and the fridge the same?
The freezer and the fridge are the same because they both have food in them, okay?
That's just how I answered.
If you came up with something similar, great.
If you, just as long as you told me a way that they're the same, nice job.
Okay, let's go to the next question.
How are the freezer and the fridge different?
The freezer and the fridge are different.
They are different because the fridge keeps food cold and the freezer keeps food frozen, right?
That's how I answered it.
And again, as long as you told me a way that they're different, maybe you told me they look different, they're different sizes.
As long as you came up with ways that they are different, you are right, nice job.
Now we're gonna talk about something called adjectives.
Adjectives are describing words, okay?
It could be, if you talk about color, you could talk about size, (mumbles) something feels.
One way that reminds me of thinking about adjectives is I think about using the five senses.
So let's review what the five senses are.
We have our sense of sight, right?
We use our eyes to see.
So anything that you can see would be an adjective.
So color, size, okay?
Like red, blue, green, those are all adjectives.
Size, big, small, little, okay?
Those are all adjectives.
Our sense of hearing.
Something that you hear, like a bang, think about how you would describe what you're hearing.
It sounds loud, it sounds soft, okay?
You can also use your sense of smell, right?
How something smells.
That smells bad or that smells good.
Good, bad, those are adjectives.
Our sense of touch, how something feels.
Does it feel hot?
Does it feel cold, bumpy, sharp, okay?
Those are all adjectives.
How they feel, okay?
And taste, how something tastes.
Is it sweet, salty?
All of those words can be used to describe your taste.
Okay, so now we're gonna go ahead.
I have some foods from the kitchen and we are going to use some adjectives to describe them, all right?
So first, anyone know what this is?
That's right, it's an orange, okay?
How would you describe this orange?
You can use your sense of sight, maybe your sense of smell.
How does it smell?
Maybe your sense of touch, okay?
Or your sense of taste.
Okay, so go ahead, get out your writing materials and write how you would describe the orange, okay?
I'm gonna get the sentence started for you.
The orange is, blank, okay?
So what adjective or adjectives can you use to describe the orange?
The orange is, right now I'm feeling it.
It just came out of my fridge.
So the orange is cold, okay?
How would you describe it?
Go ahead and write it now.
(bright upbeat music) So what did you come up with?
The orange is orange, the orange is sweet, the orange is round, okay?
Any of those are great, okay?
Let's go to our next one.
Next, do you know what this says?
If you said lemon you're right.
Now how would you describe the lemon?
Once again, just came out of my fridge.
So the lemon is cold.
That's how I would describe it.
How would you describe it?
Go ahead and write it down now.
(bright upbeat music) What words did you use to describe your lemon?
The lemon is yellow.
And you know, if you taste a lemon, the lemon, I would say the lemon is sour, okay?
Nice job.
Alright, next we're gonna describe this vegetable.
What is it?
Broccoli, okay?
How would you describe the broccoli?
Once again, it just came out of my fridge.
So I would say the broccoli is cold.
How would you describe it?
Go ahead and write it.
(bright upbeat music) what did you write?
The broccoli is green.
The broccoli is bumpy.
And when you taste it, I would say the broccoli is crunchy.
I love broccoli.
And now we're gonna talk about our last room, the living room.
Okay, so here we are in the living room.
Now different people call this differently.
Some people call it a living room, some people might call it the family room, some even may call it a TV room If you have a TV in this room.
Now just like before, we're gonna practice the vocabulary.
I'll say it first, then you'll repeat after me.
Living room, picture, fireplace, bookcase, mirror, mirrors, couch, sofa, coffee table, lamp, side table.
Okay, so now that we had a chance to practice saying the vocabulary let's talk about it.
Picture, okay?
This could be a photograph.
It could also be a work of art.
People usually call it a picture.
If you have a fireplace in your home, that's what this would be called.
Bookcase, similar to the bookcase that we saw in the bedroom, different bookcases look different.
The one in the bedroom had three shelves.
This one has two shelves and a cabinet, still called a bookcase.
Here we have mirrors, that's why we have the s at the end, right?
Because there are more than one.
This can either be called a couch or a sofa.
Whatever word you prefer to use.
This is a coffee table.
People often put their drinks there, put their coffee there, and it's coffee table.
People also like to put magazines or books and lay them out on the top so that they can read.
Here's a lamp, and here we have a side table.
Some people call it a side table, some people call it an end table because it is at the end of your couch or at the side of your couch.
Okay, alright, we're gonna play one last game.
Go ahead and get out your materials again.
Your materials of writing.
And we're going to play a game similar to a game that we played before.
I am going to give you a clue and then you are gonna write down what you think I'm describing, okay?
Here we go.
I would like to sit down, where in the living room can I sit?
So go ahead and write down your answer.

If you did, you're right, nice job.
Okay, here's our next clue.
I'm reading, but it is dark and hard to see, what can I use tell help me?
Go ahead and write down your answer now.
(bright upbeat music) Okay.
Did you write down lamp?

All right, here is our last clue.
This is another name for living room.
I'll say that again.
This is another name for living room.
Go ahead and write down your answer.
(bright upbeat music) Did you write down TV room or family room?
If you did, nice job.
Okay, one final practice with our prepositions.
All right, let's review really quickly.
In, next to, on, above, under.
I want you to think about these words.
Pick something in the room and use it in a sentence.
For example, the lamp is on the side table, okay?
Please don't use my example.
Try to come up with something else.
You could talk about anything in the room.
The picture, the bookcase, the books, the mirrors, the window, okay?
I just want you to use it in a sentence, okay?
Using one of our prepositions, okay?
Go ahead and do that now.
What sentence did you write?
Great job.
Okay, before we go, let's review what we talked about today.
We talked about vocabulary associated with the bedroom.
Chair, desk, bookcase, dresser, drawer, and we also learned that we put s at the end of the words to make them mean more than one, such as drawers, window, bed, okay?
Those were words in the bedroom.
I also introduced you to prepositions.
In, on, next to, under and above.
Then I read The Napping House where everyone was sleeping.
We learned some new words, new sleeping words.
Napping, snoring, dreaming, dozing, snoozing and slumbering.
Then we talked about vocabulary associated with the bathroom.
Shower, bathtub, medicine cabinet, mirror, cabinet, cabinets, towel rack, and of course the toilet.
And then you practiced using those prepositions.
Then we talked about vocabulary associated with the kitchen.
Freezer, fridge, window, sink, dishes, cabinet, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker and oven.
And we learned that we put es at the end of words to make them mean more than one if they end with sh, such as dishes.
You also compared and contrast freezer and fridge.
You told me how they were the same and how they were different.
Then we learned about adjectives and how we can describe things using our five senses.
Sight, hearing, smell, touch, and taste.
Then we talked about vocabulary associated with the living room.
Picture, fireplace, bookcase, mirror, mirrors, couch or sofa, coffee table, lamp and side table.
And remember we learned other words that people use instead of living room.
Family room or TV room.
And then you used those prepositions in a sentence.
Great job.
You guys should be so proud of the work you did today.
I know I am.
