  • This English lesson will teach places vocabulary and action verbs related to things we do in different locations and the people who work there.
  • By association, this is a good lesson for reviewing and reinforcing jobs vocabulary.
  • The lesson focuses on nouns related to jobs and places in the city. It, therefore, focuses on using the verb 'to work' in the present tense with emphasis on the third-person singular.
