Venn it out
After reading, kids compare two characters, two events or two articles on a Venn diagram, using a quote for each point. Then they turn the diagram into a short paragraph. The diagram keeps their thinking organized and the quotes keep it honest.
Why it works: children learn more from words and pictures together than from words alone (Mayer, 2009).
