In the middle school Minnesota History class they have been studying Native American history in Minnesota.

"I wanted to share something that I am doing in the civics class with my kiddos as a form of formative assessment and note taking. You may be familiar with the term "mind maps" this is essentially what we are doing here. This article I am attaching explains: Drawing wins out because it allows information to be processed in multiple ways, explained Edutopia’s research editor Youki Terada: “When we draw, we encode the memory in a very rich way, layering together the visual memory of the image, the kinesthetic memory of our hand drawing the image, and the semantic memory that is invoked when we engage in meaning-making.”"
