Social Justice Hexagonal Thinking Activity

$5.00

This student-centered hexagonal thinking activity for Google Drive or print asks readers to use critical thinking skills as they make connections between ideas relating to social justice. Hexagonal thinking is a retrieval and connection strategy. The goal is for students to make a generalization about linked ideas. Students are given (or self-generate) several relevant ideas, concepts, feelings, images, terms, etc., make connections, receive quick teacher feedback, and explain why and how.

➡️For differentiation ideas, guidelines for students, sentence stems, and more ideas, read more about hexagonal thinking by visiting this blog post on the Lindsay Ann Learning website.

There is no right or wrong answer in this activity, so long as students are able to justify and explain their connections. You may want to increase the rigor by requiring textual citations to support these connections. You can also have students “re-shuffle” to find a new way of connecting the hexagons.
