Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Identify the relationship in a completed word pair

  • Apply the same relationship to a second pair

  • Generate a missing analogy term without answer choices

Teaching tips

  • Name the relationship in words before selecting or generating the missing term.

  • Have learners create a new analogy using one relationship type from the page.

Skills covered

  • Relational reasoning — one word-pair pattern transfers to another.

  • Semantic categorization — category, function, part, and attribute links are compared.

  • Vocabulary generation — open items require an independently supplied term.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

Do students choose answers or write their own?
