The most important part of school is the people! The school workers.

I made several flashcards to use for the speaking part of the lesson plan.

Hold up a flashcard and show it to class, say the word and have your students repeat back.

Place a school place flashcard and a school person flashcard. Have the students make sentences stating where they are.

Teacher: Who is he?

Student: He is the Principal.

Teacher: Where is he?

Student: He is in the Principal’s office.

Teacher: Who is in the bathroom?

Student: The janitor is in the bathroom.

Teacher: Who works in the library?

Student: The librarian works in the library. 

Tell students that you are interviewing a flashcard person. Make a model and have students help with more questions. Then, assign each group of students a teacher, worker or students in the building to interview them, even in the native language and having to translate later. Put up all the interviews in a class book for everyone to read.

I made a set of flashcards with no words.

Pick a flashcard to provide an example for a writing activity as in a mind map.

Tell the students that you have selected this flashcard and will create with the class a mind map. Start asking questions and write key words. Students can also add key word or ask questions to class to get more words.

Teacher: Who is she?

Student: She is the science teacher.  (write science teacher)

Teacher: Where does she work?

Student: she works in the science lab. (write science lab)

Then have students do their own writing using the set of flashcards. When they have finished have the students work in pairs and complete each other writing with more words.

Place another flashcard on the board and write the WH questions words on the board.

Have the students write questions and you have to answer. Model the first question and place flashcards as answers.

Teacher: Who are they?

Student: They are students. 

Student: Where are they?

Teacher: They are in the cafeteria.

Student: When are they eating?

Teacher: In the afternoon.

Student: What time are they eating?

Teacher: twelve-thirty.

Student: What are they eating?

Teacher: They are eating lunch.

Have the students sort the flashcards into places,jobs ,subjects and objects.

Place several places flashcards on the board and have the students ask questions using Where ? and answer by placing the corresponding person under each flashcard.

Student 1: Where is the janitor?

Student 2: He is in the cafeteria. 

For extra vocabulary practice have the students describe in detail the flashcards using There is and There are.

This is it for school people. But I am still working on more school unit resources. Follow me!
