Lesson Description

Students will be separated into 3 groups. Each group will be given sets of photos of each different type of community. They will each generate a list of what they see in each set of pictures. When done, they will turn and talk to their group, combining their lists and answering the questions:

How are these communities the same? How are they different?

Students will then present their findings to the class, creating a class made venn diagram, and leading to a larger discussion and subsequent lessons about what it means to live in and be part of a community.
