WHOLE TO PART (BRACEMAP)
MINDGENIUS
Mindgenius is a very simple tool to help students look up the whole object and its parts. On the first line on the far left, the student writes the whole object followed by writting the different parts of the whole object. If those parts can be broken down even more, students can add these parts as well. This is a great thinking map to help students visualize all the components in something.
