Hexagon Links

In each hexagon (template on the CRL) write a word/ phrase/ object/ skill or event.  They should be linked in some way to each other but the links can be as obvious as you want them to be. The students have to cut our the hexagons and start to link them/ group them to each other where they think there is a link. They have to continue to do this until each hexagon is linked to at least one other. I didn't dictate how the end product should look and some students grouped them much tightly together and others created more linear links.

The hexagons are then stuck down to a piece of paper and the students have to annotate the diagram they have created to explain the links. The hexagons and explanation can then be used to help write an exam answer if needed or it could be used as a summary of their learning.
