Instructional Ideas

• Ask students to outline the bubbles in which they will be comparing with a particular color, and the bubbles with which they will be contrasting with a separate color
• For a more advanced assignment, have students identify direct contrasts by drawing horizontal lines across bubbles on the separate sides of the page

Classroom Considerations

• The resource can seem fairly overwhelming at first glance; walk learners step-by-step through how to complete the worksheet to your expectations

Pros

• Offers more room for comparing and contrasting than in your standard Venn diagram

Cons

• None
