  5. Classifying Terms Description – The process of grouping on the basis of similar attributes. Creating categories and then placing terms into the categories requires students to identify key attributes of concepts associated with the terms, and to have sufficient understanding of those attributes to recognize them in other terms.

  6. Classification tasks can be either structured or open-ended. Structured = Students are given terms to classify and the categories into which they must place them. Example = Classify a list of conflicts in history according to their major causes: economic, social, or political.

  7. Open-ended classification Provide either the list of terms to classify or the categories , but not both. Example – Given terms = plateau, mesa, mountain, bay, ocean, canyon, hill, glen, forest, plain, port canal, reservoir, stream, and prairie. Students might decide to classify them based on type of topography, size, whether they are natural or manmade, etc.

  8. Classifying procedure • Give students a list of terms from their notebooks/subject and ask them to classify them • The terms may be related such as bodies of water, or unrelated to form categories. Ex. 6th grade = radiation, Holocaust, perimeter, coordinate plane, integers, conflict, nobility, lithosphere, climax (form subject area categories)

  10. Solving Analogy Problems A complete analogy contains two terms in the first set (A & B) that have the same relationship as the two terms in the second set (C & D) In analogy problems, one or two terms are missing and students must complete the statement by providing terms that will complete the analogy

  11. Analogy Examples If ONE term is missing the field of possible accurate answers is narrowed considerably. Examples: Bone is to skeleton as word is to ________. Inch is to foot as millimeter is to _______.

  12. Analogy Examples When TWO terms are missing , an analogy can be completed with a wider variety of answers. In the examples below, many different perspectives can be applied. Harry Truman is to World War II as ____ is to ______. Rhythm is to music as ____ is to ______. TIP. Analogy problems with two missing terms provide opportunities for students to think beyond obvious relationships. In the above example, students could write that Harry Truman could have prevented WWII or that Harry Truman is known for his leadership in WWII. Students would need to explain the relationship between the first two items and then apply it to the second two items.

  13. Bridge Map Bridge maps can be used for analogies. They identify similarities between relationships. The relating factor answers “How are they related?” The Bridge Map should be able to be read as a complete sentence. On the far left line, write the relating factor. On the top and bottom of the bridge, write in the first pair of things that have this relationship. On the right side of the bridge, write the second pair with the same relationship. The line of the bridge represents the relating factor between the pair of things.
