Students sit on opposite sides of a barrier to discover what's the same and what's different in two carefully illustrated Christmas pictures. Same-Different is a great game to develop analytic thinking skills and communication skills. Students can’t see each other’s pictures so they must scan their own picture carefully, ask questions, describe details, and take the role of the other. For example, “The elf in my picture is hanging a photo of Santa Claus on the wall. Is your elf also hanging a photo?” The game is easy to set up and play. Includes instructions, two Christmas illustrations, a recording sheet, and the answer key for the differences in the two pictures.
