5th Grade Vocabulary - 5th Grade Academic Vocabulary Set for Social Studies

Use this 5th grade vocabulary set to provide active vocabulary instruction for social studies. Intentional vocabulary instruction in the content areas is vital to the success of your students, because vocabulary activities help learners develop academic language and access academic textbooks. This 5th Grade Social Studies Academic Vocabulary Set will help you make vocabulary practice an integral part of your social studies instruction. It will also help you create a bright, eye-catching social studies word wall that your students will refer to all year long!

Included in the bundle are 136 word wall mini posters (legal size) that show the vocabulary term, the definition, and a graphic, an 84-page student packet which contains a half-page section for each word where students record their own definition, a sentence using the word, and draw a picture, symbol, or other graphic representation of the term as well as a full alphabetical glossary of all 136 words, and an 8.5" x 44" banner for your word wall.

A white background version of the word wall cards is also included if you are trying to save on ink!

All of the vocabulary words come from the following 5th grade social studies units:

• Three Worlds Meet: Thinking Like a Historian
