About this resource

What's inside this resource

Frayer models are a great way for students to learn and apply new vocabulary words. Use these templates with a class novel or assign them to students to use with independent reading material. This set includes both pre-made versions and blank, editable versions so that you can adjust them to fit your class' abilities and needs.

✏️ Vocabulary sets are pre-labeled with the following sections:

  • Word (centered)

  • Part of Speech and Definition

  • Connection (can be synonyms or anything related)

  • Picture

  • Sentence

✏️ What's Included:

5 variations

  • - Google slide deck - Vocabulary Set, 8 slides

  • - Google slide deck - Blank models, 8 slides

  • - Google slide deck - Blank models (4 per page)

  • - Printable PDF - Vocabulary Labels Set of 8 - 1 page front and back

  • - Printable PDF - Blank models (Set of 8)

Common Core Standards:

Determine or clarify the meaning of unknown and multiple-meaning words and phrases

  1. Use glossaries or beginning dictionaries, both print and digital, to determine or clarify the precise meaning of key words and phrases.

  2. Identify real-life connections between words and their use (e.g., describe people who are friendly or helpful).

  3. Acquire and use accurately grade-appropriate general academic and domain-specific words


In the classroom

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Teaching tips

  • Fill in a sample word together as a class before assigning the template independently, since no example vocabulary word is included in the file.

  • Use the editable PowerPoint versions for digital vocabulary work and the matching PDF versions when printing physical copies for the same activity.

  • Reuse the same blank template across different units or subjects, since its four-section structure (definition, characteristics, examples, non-examples) is not tied to any specific content.

Skills covered

  • Vocabulary organization - students (or teachers) fill in a four-section Frayer Model template with a definition, characteristics, examples, and non-examples for any chosen word.
