Diagrama de Venn - Mi familia y yo

What Is a Venn Diagram?

A Venn Diagram uses overlapping circles to compare things.

• The overlapping area shows how you are the same.
• The separate areas show how you are different.
• We will search for some examples online in class.

Instructions

Create a Venn Diagram to show how you and a family member are similar and different.

1. Choose How You Will Create Your Venn Diagram

You can use Canva, PowerPoint, or draw it on paper.

• Canva:
  • Go to www.canva.com.
  • Click "Log in with Google" and use your school email.
  • Search for "Venn Diagram" and pick a template you like.
• PowerPoint:
  • Open a new slide and draw two overlapping circles.
• Paper:
  • Draw two overlapping circles by hand. (A lot of people have those big Stanley cups. Those would work well for the template.)

2. Title Your Diagram

Add a title at the top in Spanish.

Example:

• "Mi hermano menor y yo"

3. Label the Circles

• One circle is you. (Label it with yo or your name)
• The other circle is your family member. Use the relationship term in Spanish like, "mi tía" or "mi abuelo".

4. Fill In the Diagram

Similarities (Overlapping Area)

• Physical Traits: What do you both look like?
  • Hair color, eye color, height, etc.
• Personality Traits: How are you both alike?
  • Funny, shy, friendly, etc.
• Interests: What do you like that your family member doesn't like?
  • Use "nos gusta + verb" or "nos gustan + plural noun".
  • Examples:
  • "Nos gusta bailar." (We like to dance.)
  • "Nos gustan los perros." (We like dogs.)
• Activities at Home: What do you both do at home?
  • Include responsibilities using "tener que + verb".
  • Example:
  • "Tenemos que limpiar la casa." (We have to clean the house.)

Differences (Separate Areas)

• Physical Traits: How do you look different?
• Personality Traits: How are you different?
• Interests: What do you like that they don't?
  • Use "me gusta + verb" for you and "le gusta + verb" for them.
  • Examples:
  • "Me gusta leer." (I like to read.)
  • "A mi hermano le gusta jugar fútbol." (My brother likes to play soccer.)
• Activities at Home: What do you do that they don't?
  • Include responsibilities using "tener que + verb".
  • Examples:
  • "Tengo que lavar los platos." (I have to wash the dishes.)
  • "Mi hermana tiene que lavar su ropa." (My sister has to wash her clothes.)
  • "Mi hermano tiene que sacar la basura." (My brother has to take out the trash.)

5. Make It Look Nice

• Use nice colors and fonts.
• Add pictures if you want.
• Make sure it's easy to read (legible!)

6. Review and Submit

• Check for mistakes.
• Submit your Venn Diagram:
  • If you used Canva or PowerPoint:
  • Email me the image or the link. (Make sure I can view the link. Check it with another browser.).
  • If you used paper:
  • Turn in your diagram to me.
