What is “Hexagonal Thinking” and how does it work?
Hexagonal Thinking is a visual tool to help students make connections & organize ideas on a topic.
To create your Hexagonal Thinking bulletin board, select a card to use as your starting point. Build your cluster by moving cards together, making sure each side that touches another card has a “connection” to the cards it touches. (I provided an example of a hexagonal cluster on the last slide.)
Every person’s cluster will look a little different. That is okay!
Instructions for printing:
Your bulletin board can be printed on white or colored printer paper. Print pages single-sided. Cut out hexagonal cards. Laminate for longevity if you choose.
Other Suggested Uses:
- Laminate cards and affix magnetic tape to the back of your cards. Use your whiteboard as a display area! Magnetic hexagonal cards enable students to interact with your display!
- Use as a traditional hexagonal thinking activity. Middle school students prefer working with larger cards! (I recommend laminating cards for reuse.)
PDF bulletin board resource and PowerPoint (Editable) bulletin board resource included.
