Use of Tree Map – Tree Maps help classify and sort details about a topic.
How have you used a Tree Map to help students detail and categories specific
details of a topic? Remember to incorporate the Frame of Reference to help
students understand where they learned the information they are detailing.
Going a bit further – Give students a list of words or a group of objects
and have them classify the same information in two or three different ways.
Students should then explain why they have classified the information to the
way they have and make a judgement about which way they think is best.
