Teaching Tip:
Overlapping concept circles can be used in all grade levels. It is ideal for classification and identifying common characteristics and attributes among a collection of objects, ideas, or topics. For online fun with classification and practice in identifying attributes of pictures, take your students online to play I Spy Oops Hoops on Scholastic Kids.
