Science Vocabulary Posters

Do your students love to learn about science? Many students favor this subject due to the interesting topics and real-world connections that can be made. When you begin to look at the standards addressed in your organisms and environments unit, you may be looking for something that will help your students with the many different vocabulary terms they are expected to learn. 

Teach Starter has designed a beautiful set of 13 vocabulary posters you can use in your classroom today. The words that were chosen for this poster pack cover areas that are typically addressed in year 4 biological science. 

Some of the words included are: 

• carnivore
• decomposer
• producer
• food web
• and more!  

How to Make the Most of Your Food Web and Food Chain Vocabulary Posters

1. Print the posters and display them in your classroom for students to reference when doing independent work.
2. Print the posters, slip them into a clear sleeve and use them in your guided groups as a reminder.
3. Print the posters, slide them into a clear sleeve, and hang them on a ring as a reference tool for a small group. 

We’ve also come up with bonus ways to turn posters into interactive tools that really make your lessons stick!

📝 Create a fill-in-the-blank worksheet by removing selections of text.  

📂 Place copies in students’ homework folders for reference. 

💻 Provide posters as digital resources for virtual students. 

🧠 Test students’ memories by showing them the poster, then hiding it and having them tell you what they remember.

✅ Incorporate posters into your lesson wrap-up: students write on a sticky note what they learned from the lesson and place it on the poster.
