This resource is designed to enhance science vocabulary acquisition for grades 3-5 by employing Total Physical Response (TPR) techniques, connecting English and Spanish words to physical movements. The goals of the resource include helping students associate movements with key scientific concepts, confidently recognize and pronounce new vocabulary, and incorporate them into sentences. It includes structured implementation steps like daily reviews, small group activities, and assessment strategies to monitor understanding. The vocabulary sets correspond with key ideas from the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and are structured around topics such as Matter & Energy, Earth Systems, Life Science, and Forces & Motion. The approach emphasizes dual-coding—combining visual, linguistic, and kinesthetic learning—making it particularly effective for diverse learners. Additional support and differentiated strategies are provided for emergent bilinguals and advanced students to ensure inclusive learning. The resource also suggests cross-curricular connections and home practice activities for family engagement.
