A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Sketch a short street with a few shops and places for people to cross.
- Ask learners to find one place connected to health and one connected to transport.
- Have pairs use familiar shops or places to get letters for the longer answers.
- Check pavement and crossing, then have learners say where two features are on the street sketch.
Support and extension
Use sidewalk and movie theater in the follow-up to compare the American terms with pavement and cinema.
