¡Hola muchachos!

Assignment: "Diagrama de Venn - un miembro de mi familia y yo"

This assignment will count as a quiz grade. It is a fun, interesting mini-project that will help you use the vocabulary and structures we have reviewed in class. The assignment is due today, but as e-learning assignments can be turned in up to three days late, the final due date for this assignment is Thursday, 04/11. All submissions after 11:59 on Thursday night will take the late penalty.

Create a Venn Diagram on Canva (or PowerPoint, etc.) to show similarities and differences between you and a member of your family (or more than one member for extra credit.)

What's a Venn Diagram?

A Venn Diagram is a visual tool used to compare and contrast two or more things - two or more people in our case. It consists of overlapping circles, each representing a different thing. The areas where the circles overlap show similarities between the items, while the non-overlapping sections highlight their differences.

Google "Venn Diagram" and select "Images" if you want to see some examples.

Instructions

Use Canva (authenticate with Google using your Spartanburg 3 credentials) to create a Venn Diagram comparing yourself with one of your family members. This diagram should visually represent both the differences and similarities between the two of you in various aspects of your lives and personalities.

Steps to Follow

  1. Log In to Canva: If you haven't already, go to Canva's website log in. Select "Log in with Google" to use your Spartanburg3 email address. If you've never used the platform, you may have to sign up - again, use your Spartanburg3 login.

  2. Choose a Template: Search for "Venn Diagram" in the Canva search bar. Choose a template that you like.

  3. Customize Your Venn Diagram:

    • Title: Start by giving your Venn Diagram a title at the top. All text must be in Spanish!
  4. Label Each Circle: One circle will represent you, and the other will represent your chosen family member.

  5. Fill in Your Diagram:

    • Similarities (Where the circles overlap):
      • Physical Descriptions: Describe any physical traits you share, like hair color, height, or eye color.
      • Personality Traits: Mention any personality characteristics you have in common, such as being outgoing, shy, or funny.
      • Age: If your ages are close, this could be a similarity.
      • Likes (Interests): Use "me gusta" for activities or things you enjoy, and "le gusta" for your family member's interests that match your interests.
      • Activities at Home: Include any activities you both do at home (both things you like doing and your responsibilities around the house.) Examples: cooking, watching certain TV shows, or playing games.
  • Differences (Non-overlapping sections):
    • Physical Descriptions: Note any major physical differences between you and your family member.
    • Personality Traits: Highlight differences in your personalities.
    • Age: If there's a significant age difference, note it here.
    • Likes (Interests): Again, using "me gusta" for yourself and "le gusta" for your family member, list interests that are unique to each of you.
    • Activities at Home: Mention any activities you prefer doing individually at home.
  1. Design and Aesthetic Touches: Feel free to customize the colors, fonts, and any additional design elements in Canva to make your Venn Diagram visually appealing. (See the rubric for more details.)

  2. Review and Download: Once you've finished your Venn Diagram, review it for any errors or omissions. Then, download your completed diagram and upload and submit it to this assignment in Schoology.

¡Buena suerte!

Extra credit: Do all of the same tasks as above, but compare yourself to two other family members. The center intersection of the three circles will contain examples that all three have in common. Google examples of Venn Diagrams with 3 circles to see how they intersect. An extra circle is worth +5 points.
