Venn diagram
Venn diagram
This strategy will help students to:
-
represent information and thinking in a graphic organiser
-
determine similarities and differences between concepts or ideas.
Implementation
-
A Venn diagram is a graphic organiser that can be used to group and separate concepts and ideas.
-
After receiving or collecting information about objects or ideas, ask students how things are the same and how are they different.
-
Students list the similarities in the overlapping parts of the circles and the differences in the areas that do not overlap.
-
This information can then be used by students to help make generalisations about an object or decision about an idea.
Example: emotional, social and physical changes during puberty
