Chemistry Vocabulary Word Bank for ESOL Students
A one-hour, worksheet-style vocabulary packet for 7th grade science that gives each chemistry term a plain-English definition alongside its Spanish translation. It builds subject vocabulary and cognate awareness, with a helpful tip on false friends like materia versus material, and is designed to live in students' science folders for the whole unit.
“simple worksheets for 7th grade SC SCience class that lasts one hours.”
Teacher Guide & Tips
- Use this as a 15-20 minute opener or closer for a one-hour class, having students fill in the blanks and read the terms aloud before the day's chemistry lesson begins.
- Discussion question: Which Spanish words look like English words, and why is it important to check the definition before assuming they mean the same thing?
- Scaffold for struggling readers: Pair students and have them read each definition aloud, then point to a real object in the room (such as a desk or water bottle) to connect the term to something concrete.
- Extension for advanced students: Ask them to write an original example sentence for three terms, using each term correctly in a chemistry context.
- Estimated time: About 15-20 minutes for completion, with the word bank remaining available for reference throughout the unit.
