THE SKELETAL SYSTEM -- DOMAIN SPECIFIC SCIENCE VOCABULARY!Want a clever way to increase students' science vocabulary? Use this worksheet as Halloween approaches or at any time during the school year f
...or a warm-up to the school day or in-between activities. In my many years of working as an educational interpreter, I noticed that it was not unusual for deaf and hard-of-hearing students who were behind their peers struggle with answering questions that began with: "What's your favorite . . .?" Often, they would answer "yes" or not be sure how to answer. The beauty of this type of worksheet is that there is no wrong answer, it is short-yet-effective, and it exposes students to a variety of categories and vocabulary within a specific domain. If time allows, it can open up a discussion on the topic. Gradually, this type of practice worksheet will help students learn how to answer this common question that seems easy on the surface, but not for those that may not have the background knowledge and vocabulary necessary to answer it.The thumbnail for this “What’s Your Favorite?” series will have a violet purple background - violet for vocabulary! Looking for fast and easy vocabulary building worksheets? Look for the violet thumbnails! Like the "What's Your Favorite...?" worksheet series? Leave me a comment so that I know you would like more!Debbie Love, M.Ed.

When you say ‘science’, one thinks of experiments and research. To do research, scientists conduct experiments to answer questions and learn new information. These experiments follow a specific sequen
...quence of steps called, ‘The Scientific Method’. Use these instructional strategies and activities to help students understand the Scientific Method and how it is applied to science experiments. Activities include determining the difference between a statement and a question, practice writing questions, understanding measurable/ non-measurable information, naming components of an experiment, and conducting an experiment using the Scientific Method.
It can be directions and procedures needed to conduct an experiment, an explanation of key facts in research reports needed to answer questions or solve a problem, or an expanded narrative in books, a
...rticles, or websites providing background information. The child’s familiarity with the different formats and ability to comprehend information from them is closely related to general reading skills and competency. Includes strategies for activating prior knowledge, understanding text structures, and finding text evidence. See BUNDLE at S0XTEA0815.

Here's the trick to make idioms stick! Many commercially available resources provide ILLUSTRATIONS of the literal meaning of the idiom. While this may be entertaining RESEARCH indicates that children who:➼ LISTEN to the idiom➼ VISUALIZE the figurative language➼ DRAW what they literally heard followed by teaching the meaning andusing it in context increases long-term learning.Hearing LossChildren with typical hearing, learn idioms through incidental exposure without having to be taught. Whereas, children who are deaf and hard of hearing often require explicit and direct instruction with higher-level language like idioms. Idioms are challenging for children that process information literally and have a concrete or limited vocabulary.
The
word ‘science’ comes from the Latin word for knowledge – scientia.
According to the Merriam -
Webster dictionary it is ‘knowledge about or study of the natural world based
on fac
... on facts learned through
experiments and observation.” It is systematic, intellectual, and
practical.
Frequently, the instructional model for children who are deaf or hard of
hearing concentrates on language development and science learning is
considered to be extra. This
instructional material includes a lesson on SOUND as a means to exemplify a science instructional
strategy
