PPE vocabulary and how it protects the body from danger

Materials: PPE, picture and word cards, activity sheets (see below)

Learning Style: Visual, auditory, tactile

Time: approx. 1 hour 30 min.

Method: 1. Explain that PPE means personal protective equipment and is the term for safety equipment in the workplace. Show the students some PPE. See if the students know the names of any of the equipment. Write the names on the board.2. Add more words to the list as you show each item. Pass the PPE around so the students can handle it or try it on. (A good teaching kit includes: (ear plugs, safety glasses, ear muffs, safety goggles, face shield, cartridge respirator, gloves, apron, hair net, safety boots or shoes, dust mask, and hard hat). Practice pronunciation with the whole group. Have students do the matching sheet below and check it together using an overhead transparency. Invite students to come up to the overhead and show their answers.3. Have students work in pairs to match the word card to the picture card. Students read the words to their partner to practice pronunciation. Later students can turn their words cards over and see how many words they remember. 4. Discuss the importance of safety equipment and which body part it is used to protect. Discuss how each PPE protects the worker from danger. After the discussion, have students work in pairs to fill in the PPE chart. Follow Up: Have students play a concentration game using the picture cards below. Use the gap fill exercises as a review. Continue to expand the lessons to include the following sentence which would be useful to a student when an interviewer asks about safety. A PPE protect(s) my body part(s) from danger(s). This sentence tells the interviewer the student understands the importance of PPE in the Canadian workplace. Students can work in groups taking turns holding up picture cards and practicing sentences.

Debrief/Transfer: What essential skills did you cover in this activity? How do you think the information about PPE will help you in the workplace? Do you think you can use any of this vocabulary at a job interview?
