Help your students to make deeper connections between important people in the Old Testament. This fun and engaging higher-order thinking activity allows students to go beyond the basics to uncover the stories behind key figures of the Old Testament and the wider story.

.

This is the perfect differentiation tool, with students able to make surface level connections or to extend themselves and think critically and/or creatively and form innovative connections. The great thing about hexagonal thinking is that there are almost limitless connections.

.

This activity is almost entirely student-led and is perfect for revision, extension work and is suitable for leaving when you have a substitute teacher. Your middle schoolers will love the opportunity to challenge themselves individually or discuss and debate connections in pairs or in small groups.

.

Who is this suitable for?

This resources is most appropriate for Grades 5+. However, this can also be adapted to suit younger students (when cutting out hexagons, only include well-known characters of the Old Testament).

.

What is included?

This resource includes:

★ pre-filled hexagons relevant to the Old Testament (60 people, 84 related words)

★ editable blank hexagons

★ student instructions

★ student Hexagonal Thinking Analysis sheet

..

What is so great about hexagonal thinking?

Hexagonal thinking is great for making connections between:

★ different subtopics

★ old and new content

★ multiple texts

★ character relationships

.

Perfect times for using hexagonal thinking include:

★ introductory activities when beginning a new unit

★ making connections between different curriculum areas

★ opportunities for demonstrating deep learning

★ end of topic revision

.

If you are looking to use this hexagonal thinking activity as a formative or summative assessment, you may be interested in looking at:

★ the number of connections made between terms

★ the quality of team discussion or individual explanations of connections

★ the quality or depth of written explanations

.

Printing and Laminating

Hexagonal thinking can take a little while to prepare, but its benefits are overwhelming. My colleagues have used hexagonal thinking in two different ways:

★ cut it out themselves and laminated hexagons to ensure they can be reused

★ provide the handouts to students for them to cut out
