Frayer Model Template for History

Last updated 19 Jul 2025

Share this content:

The Frayer Model is a tool to help support students with subject specific vocabulary (also known as tier three vocabulary).

This adapted model requires students to define key historical terminology and then apply their knowledge by describing characteristics or giving facts about the key term, generating examples, and then using the key term in a sentence.

It is a useful way of helping students learn the key historical terminology the need to know for GCSE and A-Level History.
