How are word wall cards used?

They are most often used in a classroom on a bulletin board to create a visual display. A visual word wall helps students recall and remember essential science vocabulary because it provides a reference for students to review and reinforce terms on a daily basis.

Suggested Use

• Use half-page cards to create bulletin board displays

• Allow students to color and decorate B&W cards to personalize the classroom word wall.

• Use quarter-page cards to create mini displays at science centers

• Use quarter-page cards to create student dictionaries.

• I like using 10-inch coupon holders if creating student dictionaries with quarter-page cards.

NGSS Alignment

• This resource supports NGSS 3-PS2-1, 3-PS2-2, 5-PS2-1, MS-PS2-1, MS-PS2-2 and MS-PS2-4.

NEXT GENERATION SCIENCE STANDARDS

The terms selected for this unit are chosen to support Next Generation Science Standards and Disciplinary Core Ideas for grades 3-5 and 6-8. I differentiate each term in this resource pack as being a basic, intermediate or advanced vocabulary word. I use the Next Generation Science Standards and Disciplinary Core Ideas to help categorize the terms. This differentiation code spans across all my product lines.
