A Kitchen vocabulary pack designed for SEND, KS1 and EFL/ESL learners using Boardmaker licenced symbols. It includes 25 kitchen action verb flashcards presented in colour and black and white, giving teachers flexible options for whole-class teaching, intervention groups, independent learning and home practice.
The colour cards provide visual support for vocabulary development, while the black and white versions are ideal for colouring activities, matching games, cut-and-stick tasks and personalised learning.
The resource includes 20 ready-to-use classroom ideas, offering teachers a wide variety of ways to teach and reinforce kitchen vocabulary. Activities focus on speaking, listening, reading, writing, sequencing, phonics, memory, sentence building, role play and storytelling. Learners can practise using the verbs through games such as charades, “What’s Missing?”, memory pairs, recipe sequencing, barrier games and story building, helping to develop confidence and communication skills in meaningful contexts.
Designed with visual learners in mind, the symbol-supported flashcards make new vocabulary accessible for children with additional learning needs while also supporting early language acquisition. The activities encourage repetition, movement and structured language, making them particularly effective for pupils with SEND, children in Key Stage 1, and EFL/ESL learners developing everyday English. Whether used during Food Technology lessons, topic work, speech and language sessions or vocabulary intervention groups, this resource provides teachers with everything they need to build kitchen vocabulary in an enjoyable, inclusive way.
