Support children’s vocabulary, creativity and communication within your junk modelling provision with our Junk Modelling Area Word Cards Display.
These useful word cards introduce children to key vocabulary they may encounter while designing, making and constructing with recycled and open-ended materials. Display the cards within your creative area so children can refer to the words naturally as they work.
The cards are ideal for supporting language linked to materials, tools and different ways of joining and manipulating materials, including actions such as cutting, folding, joining, taping, threading and constructing.
Use the cards to:
Introduce and reinforce junk modelling vocabulary
Encourage children to talk about their ideas and creations
Support early reading and word recognition
Develop vocabulary linked to tools, materials and processes
Encourage children to describe how they have made something
Support independent access to the junk modelling area
Enhance a language-rich continuous provision environment
Encourage problem-solving, designing and making
Perfect for Nurseries, Preschools and Reception classrooms, these word cards make a practical addition to your junk modelling, creative or construction provision.
Created by experienced qualified primary school teachers with QTS.
