Concept maps help students see the connections between words and ideas.
Ask students to read a short science passage. When they finish, ask them
for one big idea from the passage. Use this idea to begin a concept map
on a board or flipchart, by putting the idea into a circle or box. Use
lines to show the relationships between the ideas or concepts in the boxes
or circles in the map. With practice, students can create their own concept
maps for science ideas.
