Somewhere to live
Put students into pairs and ask them to brainstorm different 
buildings etc. where people can live (e.g. a bungalow) and how 
people can fi nd new places to live (e.g. in a newspaper). Collate 
answers on the board, encouraging students to write down any 
new vocabulary.

• If you are teaching in an English-speaking environment, tell 
students to circle words so that the sentences are true about 
their home in their own country.
Ask someone to read out the fi rst sentence so that it is 
true for them and get other students who circled the same 
word(s) to raise their hands. Repeat this procedure for the 
fi rst sentence and then with the other three sentences. 
Alternatively, you could encourage other students who have 
circled the same words to agree by saying So do I.
• If you are teaching in an English-speaking environment, you 
could ask students how they found the accommodation where 
they are currently living.
