STARS preperation - compare and contrast

This week we ran a whole class activity on comparing and contrasting (what is similar and what is different) to prepare for our next STARS unit next week. We looked at key words and highlighted text using three different colours. We then changed our notes into a Venn Diagram to see our results.

The boys were very engaged in the text, which was discussing the Sumatran Rhino and the Woolly Rhino. I'm sure your boys would be able to have an interesting discussion with you tonight regarding the similarities and differences between the two, or how to make and use a Venn Diagram.
