Top down webs are a great way to organize information visually. According to Keys to Literacy, it allows students to better visualize the information and therefore have an easier time retaining it.
Here's one I made for science. We were studying the transfer of thermal energy through radiation, convection and conduction. This is on the wall in my classroom. The students also have this in their interactive science notebooks.
There are lots of rules regarding how it should be set up. Information should be presented using shapes. Research more on top down webs on the Keys to Literacy website.
Post your samples of top down webs!
