VOCABULARY 4 Square Graphic Organizer & Booklet Vocabulary Building Sheet

Building academic language and subject-area vocabulary is so important, and getting your students to remember all of those important words can be challenge!

This is a graphic organizer and personal vocabulary booklet that gives them another way to build their knowledge of any topic or theme you teach.

GRAPHIC ORGANIZER

This half-page organizer is great for introducing new words to your students. They will write the word at the top and then:

• indicate how familiar they already are with the word
• write the definition in their own words
• draw a picture
• write synonyms and antonyms
• use the word in a sentence

I suggest using the graphic organizer with important words that your students will need to remember and use across topics or subjects. A digital version of the graphic organizer is provided in Easel.

VOCABULARY BOOK

• On each page, students will
• write the word (or phrase)
• add their own illustration, diagram, or other visual
• write a definition
• categorize the word as an idea, person, place, event, or process

The cover has space to write the topic and add an illustration. There is also a table of contents where students will list all of the words in their booklet. This is a great tool to use when teaching a specific topic that has a lot of new vocabulary for student to remember.

Includes EDITABLE TABLE OF CONTENTS in case you want to pre-type the words your students will be learning.
