Spider Maps - Basic Concept

A spider map is a tool that provides a visual framework for students to use. Sometimes called a concept map, a spider map has a main idea or topic in the center, or the body, of the diagram. Each detail or sub-topic associated with the main idea has its own leg, or branch, surrounding the main idea.
