Science is vocabulary intensive. Direct instruction helps students learn academic content and improves their non-fiction reading comprehension. We want students talking using these words, so I often use games. To increase their exposure and background knowledge in science there are also short reading passages about matter.

This vocabulary set goes with my English and Spanish word wall for classifying matter:
