Critical Thinking Interactive Whiteboard

Digital Venn diagrams - useful across the curriculum! Perfect for organizing compare and contrast essays, or summarizing similarities and differences between things. Yes, the digital Venn diagram is great for distance learning assignments, but even when you're teaching in person there are advantages to using it. For example, it's much easier for students to edit & make changes to than a paper version, it saves paper, and ends up more legible and looking more professional so kids are proud of their work. This product consists of a Google Slides file, with 3 different colored Venn diagram templates and shareable in all the usual ways Google files can be shared with students for individual or collaborative assignments. All of these Venn diagrams are for comparing 3 or 4 items. If you only need your students to compare / contrast 2 items, check out my other highly rated Venn diagram files.

There are many ways to use these files! Project them and complete as a group. Project them on an interactive whiteboard, or you could share the file with students to use on a computer. They can each have their own copy of the file, or the activity can be collaborative if they are given shared access to the file. Some slides are already set up with text boxes that your students will edit to complete the diagram, another has editable text that you will set up and then the students will drag the text boxes to the correct location.

Purchasing this product grants permission for use by ONE teacher in his or her own classroom. If you have colleagues who would like to use this file, please respect the time I have put into making this for you and direct them to my store to buy their own copy! Thank you!

Venn diagrams are useful across the curriculum and very versatile! This collection of blank templates is perfect for organizing compare and contrast essays, summarizing similarities and differences between any two things, or taking notes while reading or listening. They are useful in literature, science, social studies and other classes. Having a digital version much easier for students to edit & make changes to than on paper, it saves paper, and ends up more legible and looking more professional so kids are proud of their work. You can, of course, print the basic Slides templates if you would rather have students work on paper! Because they are editable files, you can add customized text before assigning or printing if you would like.

This product consists of a Google Slides file with several different colored Venn diagram templates for comparing 2 items. Includes templates with overlapping rectangles to allow for more space for students to enter information, for a total of 21 templates. If you need your students to compare 3 or 4 items, check out the other Venn diagram templates in my store. Buy them together as a bundle to save money. The bundle includes ready-made (non-customizable) PDF versions of the files for ease of printing.

There are many ways to use these files! You could project the files, use them on an interactive whiteboard, or you could share a file with students to use on a computer. They can each have their own copy of the Slides file, or the activity can be collaborative if they are given shared access to the file. One version of the Slides template has text the students will edit to complete the diagram, another has editable text that the teacher will set up and then the students will drag the text boxes to the correct location. Depending on the topic, you and your students could use images instead of text within the Venn diagrams.

For perfectionist students, the digital version can be much less frustrating than working on paper as they can easily fix mistakes (putting an item in the wrong part of the diagram or misjudging how much space they need for something) and still end up with a beautiful final product with no evidence of erasing or changes!

The slides are shareable in all the usual ways Google Slides files can be shared with students for individual or collaborative assignments. To use the file, you will need a Google account.
