Remember to utilize The Frame of Reference to help understand how your students are coming to their conclusions.
Going a bit further – Give your students the subparts to see if they can figure out the Whole or Main Object. Also, you can take a Tree Map to give specific information about each subpart of the Main Object.

ReplyDeleteHi, EHS PE Department! I'm just checking in to applaud you for some great ideas for incorporating Thinking Maps into your instruction. Some of you have seen that their use will definitely increase student involvement and discussion. Through your use, students will quickly see that these Maps extend beyond the walls of "reading, writing, and arithmetic," and that they truly are tools for learning in all areas! Thanks so much for your hard work!
