Why Use Venn Diagrams?
It's time to challenge students’ higher-level thinking skills by comparing 2 Presidents! One of the best ways to organize information when comparing Presidents is to use a Venn Diagram. By having students compare and contrast two Presidents, they'll be able to dive deeper into their understanding and analyze information; everything from basics facts to leadership styles, decisions, and impact on history.
This type of activity is a great way to engage students' critical thinking skills
and encourage them to make meaningful connections.
Did you know that Venn Diagrams encourage kids to:
🔹Think critically about information
🔹Organize information visually
🔹Determine similarities
🔹Take note of differences
The best part is you can use them for ANY age or style of learner!
Why Take Time to learn about the Presidents?
