Furniture vocabulary is one of the easy areas for learners of English. However, I think that it never hurts if the students experience some success.
In this post, there is a video with all the words, an infographic and three games to practise the vocabulary.

[/su_heading][su_spacer] Start your lesson with the vocabulary film. Listen and repeat the words and then say the English word for the furniture that you see in the picture. The words are presented and then repeated. The video is based on the learning method described and recommended by Baddeley in his book on memory. I can confirm that it works.Play the video at least twice in the lesson. Your students will remember the words better.
