What are some strategies to help teach first grade students this very hard vocabulary? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I have found that using Frayer Diagrams work really well in teaching complex vocabulary terms. In a Frayer Diagram, the student must write the definition, draw a picture, create an example and a non-example. I feel that students are given the appropriate content of the word, but they also have to apply their knowledge of the word.
