Venn Diagrams This strategy will help students to compare and contrast information attained from a text or unit of study through the use of a graphic aid. The students write the attributes of one concept in the left-hand side of the circle that which only it possesses. The students write the attributes of the other concept being looked at in the right-hand side of the second circle those characteristics only it possesses. The students write those attributes shared by both concepts in the middle area where the two circles overlap. These should be the characteristics that are shared by both concepts. The students share their venn diagrams, and/or use them in putting the information into paragraph form.  Return to Compare and Contrast Home
