The Hospital and Hospital Wards Lesson Plan:

This hospital explanation activity contains a simple greeting and a hospital or hospital ward introduction as a nurse/patient conversation. There is a sample hospital layout at the bottom of the page with the key vocabulary depicted by icons to help the students.

- Do the introductory dialogue in pairs or small groups. Help with any vocabulary questions and use the sample hospital layout to aid with comprehension.

- Go over the language and vocabulary on the second page. Then have the students practice the dialogue together substituting in the new vocabulary and different ways of asking the questions.

- The third page helps students to explain about the hospital wards. Have them do the brainstorming activity and then review the two ways to describe a hospital ward or hospital department.

- Using only the sample hospital layout, have the students perform the exercise as a nurse/patient role play.
