Mohammed Faerber
Through this series of Classroom Objects worksheets, young learners will embark on a journey of discovery within their educational environment. By participating in interactive activities that promote word-object association, reading comprehension, handwriting, and visual recognition skills, students will develop a deeper understanding of the objects that surround them in the classroom. Overall, these worksheets provide an enjoyable and effective way to build vocabulary, strengthen foundational literacy skills, and cultivate a sense of familiarity and comfort within their learning environment.
Today you learned a lot of new words in Spanish so you can describe and talk with fluency all the classroom objects you know! And the best way to ensure knowledge is to practice what you have learned! Check out a fun worksheet that you can download for free below.
In this lesson students learn to identify and say 5 different objects in the classroom. Students practice naming things in their classroom, play fun games and activities and do a worksheet activity.
1. Introduce the vocab
Today your students are going to learn the words: table, chair, bookcase, door, window. Before class, print off enough flashcard pictures of each of these words for each student in your class as well as yourself (so if you have 8 students you will need 9 table flashcards, 9 chair flashcards, etc.).
Next give each student the same 5 flashcards and have them lay the cards out in front of them. Touch one of your cards (e.g. door) whilst saying the word and have your students touch and repeat on their cards. Go through all of the cards.
2.Play "Stick the flashcards onto the classroom objects"
Give each student a ball of Blue-Tack. Everyone will instantly want to play with it - allow a couple of minutes to play (encourage them to mould objects, such as fruit, etc.).
Then bring the focus of the class back to yourself and demonstrate the activity: hold up the door flashcard, pull off a bit of Blue-Tack and stick it to the back of the card. Then walk over to a door in the classroom and stick the card to the door. Say "Door" as you do so. Hold up the next flashcard and encourage students to point to the object (act as if you have no idea where it is) then walk over and stick the card to the object, again saying the name. Do this for all 5 flashcards.
3.Play "Retrieve the flashcards from the classroom objects"
Now that all of the flashcards are on objects in the classroom, we can bring them back. To do this, the teacher can give individual instructions to students to go and get a different object and place in front of them. Get everyone up and retrieving different cards at the same time, for example:
4. Play "Knock knock"
Collect up the flashcards. Tell everyone to close their eyes. Walk up to one of the objects (e.g. the window) and knock twice on it. Encourage the students to shout out what they think you are knocking on. Each time they can open their eyes to check.
5. Play "Classroom Objects" touch
Have everyone stand up in the middle of the classroom. Teacher shouts out a word (e.g. "Touch the door!") and everyone must run to the door and touch it. This should be a quick and exciting game.
6. Play "Hide and Find"
This is a really fun game. First demonstrate: take a small object (I always use a small koala toy) and tell everyone to close their eyes. Hide it in or near one of the classroom objects (e.g. under a table, behind a door, next to a window, in a bookcase, on a chair). Tell everyone to open their eyes. Show that the koala is now gone and is hiding somewhere. Ask for a volunteer to stand up and find the koala - if help is needed say it is hiding somewhere near one of the 5 classroom objects. When the student finds the koala give a big round of applause and elicit the classroom object the koala was hidden in or near.
Now that everyone understands the game, pair up all of the students and give each pair a small object to hide. Student A of each pair will hide the object while Student B closes their eyes. Let students change roles a few times.
7.Do the "Color the Room 2" worksheet
Give out the worksheets and have each student color them in. As students are working away, circulate and ask questions (e.g. What's this? What color is this?). When finished, get each student to show the class their work, ask a question (e.g. what color is the bookcase?) and give a round of applause.
8.Read classroom reader "Find Me in the Classroom"
By this point your students will have had a good amount of practice identifying the key vocab so let's have some fun with a story which incorporates the classroom vocab. Before class, download and print off the reader "Find Me in the Classroom". As you go through each page, point to the key vocab in each picture and elicit the words. Then get your students to have fun searching for and finding the ladybug / ladybird hiding in the classroom, for example:
Continue through the story, asking where the ladybug is hiding. Get the students really involved in the story by asking lots of questions (e.g. the colors and where the other insects are) and even ask yes/no questions about where the ladybug is hiding (making mistakes, of course), for example:
After reading the story, give out a reader worksheet to each student and read through the story one more time (without stopping for questions, etc.) as students mark on their sheets the different places the ladybug hides. Then go through the answers as a class.
9.Play "Vocabulary Basketball"
Let's finish with a fun game which will review vocab from this lesson as well as previous lessons. You will need a basket (a wastepaper basket) and 2 balls (2 pieces of A4 paper scrunched up into a ball). Also, have flashcards for the vocab from this lesson as well as previous lessons - shuffle them well.
Form 2 teams and line them up so that two players from each team are facing the front with the basket in front of them. Let both players throw their ball - if they get their ball into the basket they can try and win a point by saying the correct word of the flashcard you hold up. Then they go to the back of the line. Play until all of the flashcards have been answered correctly - the team with the most points is the winner!

The method of loci, an ancient and effective mnemonic technique, can also be adapted for memorising Spanish classroom objects. By visualising your classroom or study space and placing objects within that mental space, you can create a 'memory palace' that helps you recall the vocabulary based on the spatial placement of each item. This technique leverages spatial memory in addition to verbal memory and can be a powerful tool for learning and remembering new terms.
