You can implement this printable in a few ways:

1.     You can begin with displaying it on your smart board for all students to be able to see. Allow students the opportunity to brainstorm and discuss in small groups where they think each shape belongs. Have a few students share out for which shapes go in which circle. Encourage students to provide an explanation.

2.     You can print a copy of this Venn Diagram for each student to complete. Students can complete it individually and then partner up and compare their answers with a classmate.

3.     On the other hand, you can allow students to brainstorm in partner groups and then return to their seats to complete the chart individually.

Extension activity:

Students can think of other shapes, draw them and determine which circle they would fit into.
