Bring Indonesian house vocabulary to life with ten engaging lessons!
This Indonesian House and Rooms Unit for Years 3–4 includes sequenced lesson plans, PowerPoint slides, printable worksheets, games and assessment. Designed to support the Australian Curriculum Version 9.0, it takes students from naming household items to writing and sharing simple descriptions of their own house.

Ini … — This is …

Ada … / Tidak ada … — There is … / There isn’t …
-
Di … ada … — In … there is …
-
Di atas, di bawah and di sebelah — On/above, under/below and beside
Picture word banks, repeated vocabulary practice and modelled sentences support students as they develop their Indonesian listening, speaking, reading and writing skills.
A practical unit for primary Indonesian lessons, with language learning, cultural connections and a creative final task.
