This lesson will introduce Venn Diagrams. This graph contains the principals of opposites and equals. The two circles that intertwine have in the cross section the similarities and the outside parts show the differences. The teacher will show the Venn Diagram and will place in the appropriate sections what each animal characteristic applies there. The students then will have to make another Venn Diagram with some other kind of mathematical expression inside it.
