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.
