Skill 1.8 Science Words Rummy
Produced by Gatsby Science Enhancement Programme, this activity is a game which emphasises the specific nature of scientific vocabulary. The object of the game is to collect three cards with the same word. These must include the correct scientific definition, a correct but non-scientific definition and a description of ‘scientific use’. An incorrect scientific definition card must not be included in this set of three. The activity requires students to consider their use and understanding of scientific language as well as strategies to strengthen their scientific vocabulary.
