Bathroom Words

This lesson teaches the names of things children see in a bathroom and gives them many chances to hear and say each word. Use clear pictures, real objects, or labelled flashcards of toilet, sink, soap, towel, toothbrush, toothpaste, bathtub, shower, mirror, and towel rack. The teacher first shows one object and says its name slowly and clearly, for example: "This is a sink." Ask the class to repeat the word together and then one by one. Give each child time to point to the object when they hear the name read aloud. Play short listening games such as "Find the card" where children pick the correct picture from a group when the teacher says the word. Use simple sentences to show use: "We wash hands at the sink." "We dry with a towel." Encourage children to bring a small picture of their bathroom item to class and say the word. Repeat the words across several short activities so children remember them. Praise effort with stickers or kind words. Ask parents to name the objects at home during bathroom routines so children practise often. The aim is that after several sessions most children can point to and name these objects with confidence and understand a short sentence about each one.

This lesson focuses on common actions children do in the bathroom and practises saying the action words clearly while doing the actions. Words to learn are wash, brush, rinse, dry, flush, and scrub. Start by demonstrating each action slowly: wash hands with soap at the sink, brush teeth with a toothbrush, rinse mouth with water, dry with a towel, and flush the toilet by pressing a button. Let children copy each action and say the word at the same time. Use songs or rhymes to help time actions, for example a two-line rhyme while brushing or washing so children know how long to do it. Teach short sentences that mix subject and action: "I wash my hands." "I brush my teeth." Use role-play: one child pretends to finish eating and goes to the sink to wash; another child says the word while acting. Also practise the verb forms slowly: "wash" (present) and the short phrase "I wash" so children start to use grammar naturally. Encourage children to follow the order: wash, rinse, dry. Show why flushing is important after using the toilet and practise saying "Flush" when you press the handle. Keep the activities short and joyful, repeating often to build habit and vocabulary at the same time.

This lesson teaches polite words and simple short sentences children use when they need things or when someone helps them. Focus words are please, thank you, excuse me, and sorry. Show when to say each word with small role-plays. For example, a child asks for a towel by saying, "Please may I have a towel?" and the friend answers, "Yes, here you are." After receiving the towel the child says, "Thank you." Use practice dialogues in class so each child hears both sides of the polite exchange. Teach "Excuse me" for getting someone's attention gently, such as if someone is in the way or you want to pass by: "Excuse me, may I go?" Teach "Sorry" for small accidents like bumping a friend. Explain tone of voice and smiling: polite words are soft and friendly. Make games where children earn stickers for using polite words correctly. Use puppet play to reduce shyness and let quieter children practise. Ask parents to notice and praise polite words at home. The aim is that children use these short polite phrases naturally when asking for help, receiving items, or moving about in shared spaces like the bathroom.

This topic shows words related to cleaning teeth and the simple routine of tooth care. Children learn toothbrush, toothpaste, brush, spit, rinse, and mouth. Begin with a puppet or doll to show how to put a pea-sized amount of toothpaste on a toothbrush. Demonstrate gentle circular brushing and say the words slowly: "Brush, brush, brush." Show how to rinse the mouth with water and then spit the water into the sink. Explain clearly and simply that toothpaste should not be swallowed. Teach short sentences such as "I brush my teeth in the morning" and "I brush my teeth before bed." Use a timer or a short song to encourage brushing for a little time, and practise saying the words while pretending to brush. Use drawings to show clean, happy teeth and sad teeth that need brushing. Ask children questions to check understanding: "What do we use to clean teeth?" and have them answer with full short sentences. Encourage parents to help and watch their children brush until they are old enough to do it well. The lesson builds good habit and vocabulary so children feel proud of caring for their teeth.

This lesson covers words used when taking a bath and shows the sequence of actions so children learn both words and routine. Introduce words one by one: bath, soap, sponge, shampoo, water, towel, and tub. Use a small pretend bathtub, a sponge, and a bottle of pretend shampoo to show each item and its use. Say sentences such as "I take a bath" and "I wash my hair with shampoo." Demonstrate gentle washing with a sponge, creating bubbles with soap so the children see foam and hear the word "bubbles." Explain how to get out of the tub carefully, sit on a towel, and dry off. Talk about asking an adult to check the water temperature: "Ask an adult for hot water." Use a short bath rhyme or song to make the routine memorable. Have children practise saying the words as they mime the actions and praise them when they follow the order correctly. Teach that towels stay dry and should be used for drying only, and that bathroom floors can be wet so we must step carefully. Encourage children to tell their parents what they learned so that the words and safe habits are used at home too.

This lesson teaches simple rules to keep children safe and healthy in the bathroom. Use short, clear statements and pictures to explain each rule: "Wash hands with soap," "Do not run," "Ask an adult for hot water," "Throw tissue in the dustbin," and "Flush after use." Explain why each rule matters in simple language: washing removes germs that make you sick, running can cause slipping and falling, and flushing keeps the toilet clean. Use role-play to practice asking for help: a child pretends the water is too hot and says, "Can you help me, please?" The teacher shows how to turn taps off and on carefully. Use a small poster with three main rules and place it where children can see; ask them to read it aloud during class routines. Reinforce hygiene by showing how to wash hands for a short rhyme and how to dry hands properly. Teach children to keep the bathroom tidy by hanging towels and putting toys away. Praise children who follow rules and give gentle reminders when needed. Repetition and clear pictures help children remember these simple but important safety habits.

This lesson teaches children how to say they need help or permission using short polite phrases and simple role-play. Words and phrases to practise are: "May I go to the bathroom?", "Can you help me, please?", "I need a towel, please," and "Excuse me." Start by modelling a simple dialogue in class: a child raises a hand and asks "May I go to the bathroom, please?" The teacher answers, "Yes, you may go," or "Wait a moment." Practice both question and response so children hear the full exchange. Use role-play in pairs so every child has a turn to ask and to answer. Teach when to ask: before leaving the classroom, if water is too hot, or if something is not working. Show body language: raise hand, look at the teacher, and speak softly. Give simple corrections and repeat lines until children feel confident. Encourage children to use these phrases at school and at home. Reinforce by saying that asking for help keeps them safe and shows respect. Regular practice will make it natural for children to seek permission and help when they need it.

This final lesson uses pictures, flashcards, and simple matching games to review and reinforce all the words and phrases learned in the unit. Prepare sets of picture cards showing objects and actions, and word cards with the matching English words. Begin with a short warm-up where the teacher names an object and children show the matching card. Then play memory matching: place cards face down and let children turn two cards to find a matching pair, such as soap and the word "soap." Use a matching board with two columns for pictures and words; children drag or place the correct picture next to the correct word. Play "Simon Says" with bathroom actions to practise verbs: "Simon says: wash your hands." Encourage teams so children learn to listen and take turns. Keep rounds short and lively to match Class 1 attention spans. Give small rewards like stickers for correct answers to build enthusiasm. Ask parents to play simple matching games at home with the child’s permission to strengthen learning. These game activities help children recognise vocabulary quickly and use it in speech and action.
