Use this poster to remind students how to arrange their thinking when comparing/contrasting two subjects. Students can recall the familiar topics of cats and dogs and can easily relate to the ideas of how they are different and the same. The key words are helpful for reminding students about the lan...
This Compare and Contrast poster serves as a great visual for students who are learning about comparing and contrasting. Shrink it and they can glue it right into their notebooks! I personally hang mine up on a skill focus wall. Enjoy!
Compare and contrast is, in my opinion, one of the easier text structures for kids to work with. If they get good practice early on, it becomes easier and easier for students to look for similarities and differences.

Concept artist Whitney Clayton was kind enough to share some of the concept art that she created for Contrast, a puzzle platform video game developed by
"Boy Smoking with Chicken" is a quirky and intriguing black-and-white photograph that captures an unexpected moment. It features a young boy casually smoking, with a chicken perched nearby, creating a surreal and slightly humorous scene. The contrast of the boy's youthful innocence against the mature act of smoking, paired with the randomness of the chicken's presence, gives this photo a unique charm.

As promised, I'm back with an Interactive Notebook template for comparing and contrasting early North American peoples. I've also included an anchor chart and a sample summary for the lesson. Here's the INB template I designed for this lesson. I would have students cut this out during morning announcements, then store it in the envelopes in the back of their notebooks until time for the writing lesson. Since this is a cross-curricular skill lesson, I would take time during both the writing block and social studies as needed to finish. Paleo vs. Archaic People Front Sample The copy I give to students would actually be blank where I currently have clipart showing people of the time. I want them to use their own illustrations, but this is an accommodation you could use for absent or struggling students. I designed this starting with a completely blank template I downloaded from Tangstar Science here. Paleo vs. Archaic People Blank Front I would have my own copy of the blank template projected on the Interactive Whiteboard, so that we could complete this as a class. This is what the inside would look like. Paleo Vs. Archaic People Blank Inside As a class, we would come up with descriptive items to fill out the chart. Differences go under the specific people, while similarities go under "Both." For instance, Paleo Indians lived when the Earth was much colder, while Archaic people enjoyed a climate and environment much like today's. However, both were hunter-gatherers. However, the Paleo Indians used sticks and spears to hunt large animals, while the Archaic people developed the atlatl to enable them to hunt smaller animals with greater accuracy. Here's a video from PBS showing the design and use of the atlatl. PBS Atlatl Video By the time we finished filling out our chart, I would expect it to look something like this: Paleo Vs. Archaic People Sample Inside This foldable chart would be glued into the Interactive Notebook, but we wouldn't stop there. Next, I would project this blank anchor chart, which I would fill in front student suggestions, while students worked on their own copies. Blank Compare Contrast Anchor Chart We would talk about the use of signal words to show when we are comparing two like items, or contrasting two items which are not alike. I would encourage students to come up with these signal words to fill the chart. (If students had difficulty with this, I would have them pull out a previous comparison/contrast article from a different assignment and have them search for the transition words.) This is what I would expect the chart to look like by the time we finished creating it as a class. Compare/Contrast Anchor Chart Once the anchor chart and Paleo vs. Archaic People foldable graphic organizer were complete, we could proceed to the compare/contrast summary paragraphs. Of course, your own curriculum probably differs from mine, but here is a sample of what I would be working on with my students. Compare/Contrast Paleo vs. Archaic People I love typing this sort of thing on the computer while students watch, because it shows the ease of editing from a computer program. Fourth graders need encouragement to type on the computer, and this is one way I try to encourage them. I also think it's a good idea to go back as a class and highlight the comparison/contrast transition words. It's an effective way to remind students to look for these words in their own writing later. Completed Sample with Highlighted Compare/Contrast Transition words Once students have completed these steps together as a class, I would have them complete similar activities for later Native American groups. My struggling students would probably continue to need small group support to be successful at this, while my high groups would be able to fly on their own. By far the largest group of students would need modest support, and we would continue to complete more of these types of assignments as the weeks progress. As a quick response, I would ask students to compare and contrast two items of their own, such as two types of animals, or two sports teams, and write a brief paragraph about it in their journals.
