Frayer Models What is a Frayer Model? Why are they used in teaching vocabulary?

Frayer Models The Frayer model is a word map activity that helps a learner to develop their understanding of new vocabulary terms by developing a visual representation of the word by using a graphic organizer. Frayer Models utilize prior knowledge and critical thinking skills to create a visual tool for the learner.

The Frayer model provides students with the opportunity to understand what a concept is and what it is not. It gives students an opportunity to explain their understanding and to elaborate by providing characteristics or facts about the term, examples from their own lives and visual cue to aid in developing an understanding of the term and application of how the term is used in the context of social studies.

1. As water became locked up in the polar ice caps, sea levels dropped as much as 300 feet. The Bering Sea between Siberia and Alaska is no more than 180 feet deep and would have been dry land at those times. The land bridge, called Beringia, was open several times in the last sixty thousand years: During each of these periods, central and northwestern Alaska were ice free, and for 80% of the period from 10,000 to 30,000 years ago there was an ice-free corridor between the eastern and western North American ice sheets that linked Alaska to the American Great Plains
33
It is estimated that sometime around 12,000 BCE, humans crossed the Bering Straits into present day Alaska thereby entering a part of the world humans had never before seen – North America. They came as explorers and settled the area all the way into the South American continent. They moved in!
