FRAYER MODEL
Frayer ModelProvides students with the opportunity to
understand what a concept is and what it is not. The examples gives students the chance to
elaborate on what they know and their understanding.
Frayer Models: different versions with similar
outcomesCharacteristic
Version:–Essential
characteristics of the word–Essential Non
Characteristics of the word–Examples –Non-examples
Definition Version: –Word’s
definition–A list of
characteristics about the concept–A list of
examples–A list of non
examples
Foldable Frayer
With a partner, select a term/concept below:
• Natural resources• Disease• Energy• Manifest Destiny• Revolution• Plot• Design
• E-Commerce• Leadership• Prime• Birds• Culture • Ethics• Safety
Foldable Frayer • Fold paper in half once, then
again (hamburger- twice)• Cut a triangle out of the folded
corner• Open and write the following
about your term/concept:– In UPPER LEFT write definition– In UPPER RIGHT write characteristics– In LOWER LEFT write examples (from own
life or something learned)– In LOWER RIGHT write non-examples
• Place your Frayer on top of the term selected
Frayer Extension Activity: “The Way I See It”
How to use:• Select topic or event that can be viewed differently by
various people or groups• Determine four people or groups who hold different
opinions or perspectives• As students read the selection, have them make notes
about how each group or person would view the event or issue.
Tips:
Consider leading a discussion on "perspective" before beginning the activity. Can be used to solve a problem and how different people or groups might solve a problem.

Brain-Based
Learning
Are you Left
Brain or Right Brain?
Taking sides….how the two sides process information that
is!Left Brain
• Logical• Sequential• Rational• Analytical• Objective• Looks at parts
Right Brain• Random• Intuitive• Holistic• Synthesizing• Subjective• Looks at wholes
The Right Brain vs Left Brain testDo you see the dancer turning clockwise or anti-
clockwise? • If clockwise, then
you use more of the RIGHT side of the brain.
• Most of us would see the dancer turning counter-clockwise . This is using the LEFT side of the brain.
• Try to focus and change the direction. See if you can do it!
Why should we as teachers want to better understand how the brain works?
Share your thoughts with your neighbor!
We must embrace All Learners in our
Classrooms!Auditory Learners (Learn by listening and speaking) Hear
Visual Learners (Learn by observing) See
Tactile Learners (Learn by manipulating objects) Touch
Kinesthetic Learners (Learn by performing or rehearsal) Move
Thematic Visualizatio
n
Thematic Visualization• Embraces: Auditory learners, Visual
learners, Tactile learners, Kinesthetic learners … All FOUR Modalities: AVTK• Incorporates whole language
strategies, writing process steps, and learning styles elements into an activity.• Enhance instruction and bridge the
gap into other content areas.
“The Pinecone Problem”
• In pairs, read and discuss the passage
• Pick a question to answer. • DRAW your response to one of the
questions on the index card. No words or numbers can be written on the response
• Move around and show the diagram to at least 3 classmates. They must sign their initials on the back of the picture and indicate which question has been answered by your illustration.
