First, each pair of children start out with a rough draft sheet. They sit together and brainstorm ideas. This usually takes a little while-- especially depending on the pairing. Sometimes when children are too similiar it's hard for them to complete this part. As they are working, I walk around the room and take a picture of each pair and write their names at the top of their Venn (just to make them a little cuter). After a little teacher proof reading, they are allowed to start on the body.
I've done the Venns two different ways. For several years I used a round head shape (made from tracing a large plastic plate). I like these, and they always turn out pretty cute.
A friend on my team came up with the idea for a diamond shaped Venn. I think they are super cute and allow for a little more personalizing. They are a little more work to prepare, but so worth it-- especially for Open House later in February.
I did the best I could to share a pattern with you. It is too big to get the whole thing on a piece of paper. You should be able to print both pages and then tape them together to create a pattern. Click {here} to get the pattern. The shape really doesn't take too long to cut out. I like to trace the writing lines in pencil for my kids, just to keep their work a little neater. Best part is you'll only need one page per two children.

The goal of all tower defence games is to stop the enemy from getting near your with the help building towers. You have to do this by making strategic plans. It calls for focus and creativity to come up with these plans and make progress in the game. Upon completion of a level you are exposed to harder stages which make these games all the more challenging.
