Vocabulary: Places and People at School
KEY FORMULA / RULE:
School vocabulary categorizes words into places (e.g., gym, music room, library, corridor) and people (e.g., classmate, teacher, librarian, headteacher). Singular and plural forms must match the sentence verbs (is/are).
SOLUTION STEPS
Exercise 10: Look, read, and complete.
- 1) gym: Shown with students exercising with a physical education teacher (already completed).
- 2) music room: The picture shows students singing and playing music with their teacher.
- 3) classmates: The picture shows students learning together at their desks in the classroom. Since the verb is plural (are), the plural form classmates (or friends) is required.
- 4) librarian: The picture shows a woman standing among bookshelves inside the library.
- 5) headteacher / headmaster: The picture shows a school leader standing formally in the hallway/corridor.

a candle (Object, not a school place)
a sports field (School place)
a gym (School place)
2. Write:
- Question: When is your birthday?
- Model Answer: It is in July (or: on 15th May / your own birth date).
3. Colour:
- Students colour 1 to 5 stars depending on how well they feel they understand the unit.
FINAL ANSWER:
- Exercise 10:
- gym
- music room
- classmates

EXAM INSIGHT / PITFALL:
Pay close attention to subject-verb agreement in sentence 3: because the sentence uses “are in the classroom”, the noun must be plural (classmates, not classmate).
