The Spotlight on Science Words Pocket Chart is the perfect blend of key
science vocabulary words and a popular vocabulary graphic organizer,
the Frayer Model. Use this pocket chart as a word-of-the-week activity
to be kept on a board or stand all year long. Spotlight on Science Words
features definitions, characteristics/facts, and real-life pictures for 75
content vocabulary words. It will surely expand your class’s vocabulary
through out the year.

How to Use:

• Choose a word to learn by putting it in the center of the graphic
organizer.

• During a class lesson, see if students know what the word
means. Use the blanks to write a definition and also include the
one provided.

• Repeat with the facts and characteristics. (Use the numbers at the
bottom to match the facts to the definitions.)

• Choose several images and have the students guess what image
represents an example. Similarly, do the same with a non-example
(most images will apply).

• Give the students an opportunity to draw examples and non­examples, or find them online or in a magazine.

Note: For multiple uses, write on cards with a wet- or dry-erase marker.
Test your marker on the corner of a card to ensure that it doesn’t leave a
permanent mark. Remove marks with a damp cloth. Cards will warp if
saturated with water.
