Need to increase your students' exposure and mastery of content-area vocabulary? Start by displaying a science word wall and using the included suggested word wall activities to help your students master their Conservation/Forms of Energy and States of Matter vocabulary!

With Vocabulary Match Up Mats, students have a mat of Conservation of Energy and States of Matter vocabulary words and a set of definitions. Students leave the vocabulary word mat intact and cut apart the definitions. This encourages students to read each definition as they try to place the definitions on the mat with the correct term. As students practice their word knowledge again and again with these mats, their confidence and ability to define the terms grows!

The Conservation of Energy and States of Matter study slips include the term, definition, and a related image. To use as an independent study tool, students can hide the term, read the definition, and guess the word OR hide the definition, view the word, and recite the definition. I’ve included suggested games to play using the study slips.
