Transcript for review

Welcome to the community learning centre. You will label five rooms on the plan. There are two worked examples on your page, and you will complete rooms three, four and five independently. Look at the plan with the entrance at the bottom. North is at the top. After entering, you face a central corridor. Immediately on your left is reception. That is room one. Directly opposite reception, on your right, is the cafe. That is room two. Continue north along the corridor. The next room on the left is the workshop. It is room three. Across the corridor from the workshop, on the right, is the studio. It is room four. Finally, follow the corridor all the way to the northern end. The large room in front of you is the library. That is room five. You have now reached the end of the tour. Check that you used one word for each label.
