Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Name 100 everyday actions in English using infinitive verb phrases
Sequence a full day in English, from getting up through going to sleep
Use synonym pairs for common actions (take a bath / have a bath / bathe)
Attach household, school, pet-care, and health vocabulary to picture cues
Teaching tips
Deal a handful of cards and have learners arrange them into a plausible day, narrating with time connectives (first, then, after that)
Play miming games — one student acts out '(to) sweep' or '(to) feed the pets' while the class guesses the card
Use the synonym cards to teach register and variation: go by bike/cycle, do the laundry/wash your clothes
Group cards into themed sets (morning hygiene, classroom, chores, celebration) for smaller vocabulary units
Pair the deck with daily-routine sentence frames ('Every morning I...') so cards move from recognition into production
Skills covered
Everyday-action vocabulary — 100 picture-supported verb phrases covering the full daily cycle.
Verb-phrase form — every card is presented as an infinitive '(to) ...' chunk, ready to slot into sentence patterns.
Synonym awareness — cards pair alternates such as (to) swim / (to) go swimming and (to) towel yourself / (to) dry yourself.
Day sequencing — the deck's order follows a day from waking to bedtime, supporting routine-narration tasks.
Good to know
