1.
Pupils write the main topic or issue in the centre of a large page.
2. Using branches, pupils draw the main ideas around the central concept, connecting them to
the centre. Pupils could use a different colour for each main idea and highlighters to underline
key words and concepts. Pupils could also add images to enhance further the visual aspect of
their map.
3. Pupils draw sub-branches in order to highlight ideas connected to the main branch.
4. If used as a revision tool, pupils might want to use the mind map as a springboard for more
extensive revision. They might, for example, wish to develop revision notes on a postcard –
one postcard for each sub-branch. These postcards could contain
the same colours and images
as the relevant sub-branch on their mind map.
5. A
debrief
after completion of the mind map may encourage pupils to think about why they
clustered particular ideas together as well as how the map has clarified their thinking.
