22 Oct Family
Who is who? From an early age, children learn words such as “mum’ and “dad” in their mother language. These words also appear at the initial stage of acquiring a foreign language. So, in this post, you will find the most important and simple expressions related to people.
| a family a mummy (BE), a mommy (AE) a daddy a sister |
| a brother a baby an aunt an uncle |
| a grandpa a grandma, a granny a pilot a model |
| a farmer a teacher a student a doctor |
People in pictures
Can your students or children name all the people on the pictures below on their own? First, let them try to speak with one word, and then to say the full sentence:
This is a family.

Free materials
We encourage you to use the files below. The vocabulary can be divided into two parts of 4 or 8 pairs so as to gradually present the words and train memory. In the case of children who can’t read yet, we suggest printing a card with pictures twice and utilizing it as a memory game.
Family in songs
It’s also worth using songs for learning. Here is the list we recommend:
- Baby Shark Super Simple Songs
- Rain, rain go away Super Simple Songs
Teachers are invited to take part in the project Slow Teaching.
Have fun!
