  1. Building Science Vocabulary And Literacy

  2. Let’s Play a Game… • Frayer Model • Jigsaw • Wiki • Foldable • Tossed Terms • Word Wall • Knowledge Rating Chart • Graphic Organizers • Marzano • Were these new words for you? • How did you feel when you went through this exercise? • Share your thoughts…

  3. Reflection: • How do you teach new vocabulary in your content areas? • How do you determine what new vocabulary words to teach? How many new words do you teach in a year?

  4. Let’s Look at your courses… • Take a look at trended areas! • Pick one area (a unit that you have yet to teach this year) and look at the core curriculum vocabulary in that area. • Now look at the vocabulary from the exams in that trended area. • Make a list… • Compare that list to the vocabulary you teach. Compare and contrast

  5. A Six Step Process for Teaching New Terms • Provide a description, explanation, or example of a new term • Ask students to restate the description, explanation, or example in their own words • Ask students to construct a picture, symbol, or graphic representing the term or phrase • Engage students periodically in activities that help them add to their knowledge of the terms in their notebook • Periodically ask students to discuss the terms with one another • Involve students periodically in games that allow them to play with terms

  6. 1. Provide a description, explanation, or example of a new term Hook-Music, pictures Bookable Split-page notes Glossary

  7. VOCABULARY • Nonrenewable energy • Renewable energy • Hydroelectric energy • Carbon-gases • Solar energy • Wind energy • Environmental Laws • Pollution • Trade-Offs • Green products Knowledge Rating Guide

  8. VOCABULARY HOOK

  9. Using Music… Al Gore: Today, I challenge our nation to commit to producing 100% of our electricity from renewable energy and truly clean carbon-free sources within 10 years. Calling all the leaders to lead us out the holeAsking all deceivers the things I want to know If we’re so technologicalWhy’re we still burning oil ‘Cause I got a car you plug into the wall that’s faster than a GTO We shot for the stars, put rovers on Mars, make planes like UFOs So why are we borrowin’ money from China to buy oil from the Gulf and destroyin’ the world Al Gore: Every bit of that has to change… Now that’s got to changeNow that’s got to change (Chorus x3)We’ll stand upWe’ll stand up and take our planet backYou and me We’ll stand upWe’ll stand up and take our planet back Talkin’ ‘bout we Talkin’ ‘bout we Talkin’ ‘bout Calling all the citizens(Al Gore: Citizens…)Citizens of the land Ask you your politicians(Al Gore: Political Leaders…)All these questions If we fight another war on terrorWhy aren’t we fighting for the environment We spend a billion dollars on wars in foreign landsBut nothin’ on education Nikola Tesla turned the Niagara Falls into energy way back when(Al Gore: Energy…) And we’re still burning coal(Al Gore: Coal…)When you can make electricity with solar and wind(Al Gore: Solar and wind…) Now who’s getting played?You and me And who’s getting paid? (Chorus x3)We’ll stand upWe’ll stand up and take our planet backYou and me We’ll stand upWe’ll stand up and take our planet back Talkin’ ‘bout we Talkin’ ‘bout we, we, we, we I’m askin’ all the citizens to take action(Al Gore: Citizens…)Take action and take back the governmentTell the government to start taxin’ pollutionMakin’ laws ‘cause that’s the solutionIt should be against the law to make pollutionSo if they make products that do what the other products doBut they didn’t pollute, what are you gonna choose? Al Gore:We should tax what we burn, not what we earn.To those who say the challenge is not politically viableI suggest they go before the American people and try to defend the status quoAnd then bear witness to the people’s appetite for dramatic changeThe time is now.

  12. Frayer Model…why is it better than regular note cards??

  13. Knowledge Rating Guide

  14. 3. Ask students to construct a picture, symbol, or graphic representing the term or phrase Frayer Model Foldable Nonlinguistic Representations

  15. Models – physical and mental

  16. Kinesthetic activities • Meiosis and Mitosis Dance • DNA Tango • Molecules (solid, liquid, gas) • “Simon” says..with muscles, bones, anatomical points • Popcorn review • Bonding • Rotation vs. Revolution • Newton’s Laws • Digestion Song (peristalsis, villi, poop)/YDIX song • …and much more…

  17. 4. Engage students periodically in activities that help them add to their knowledge of the terms in their notebook Knowledge Rating Guide Similarities and Differences

  18. Jigsaw

  19. 5. Periodically ask students to discuss the terms with one another Tossed Terms Think-Pair-Share

  20. 6. Involve students periodically in games that allow them to play with terms http://jc-schools.net/tutorials/PPT-games/ http://www.marzanoandassociates.com/html/resources.htm#powerpoint

  22. The strategy involves breaking the classroom into small groups of four to six students. Each group is responsible for a specific piece of knowledge that they will discuss with other classmates.

  23. The central theme of his work has been translating research and theory into practical programs and tools for K-12 teachers and administrators.

  24. A way to share knowledge between students using a manipulative. Can also be used with a science article to discuss main terminology.

  25. A page or collection of Web pages designed to enable anyone who accesses it to contribute or modify content

  26. These enhance students' ability to represent and elaborate on knowledge using mental images.

  27. Area in the classroom where key terms or concepts are anchored

  28. Assesses vocabulary literacy pre-and-post unit. Allows students to add new knowledge and drawings along the way.
