    Why use mind maps?
    Think of ‘your house’

    This proves that your brain remembers and


    thinks in colour and pictures.

    Mind mapping;
    links the left side of your brain that
    focuses on numbers, words, lists and logic,
    to the right, creative side. 5
    • Your brain functions by connecting and
    associating between the left and right
    sides.

    • Therefore using images, key words, and


    colour in mind maps, we are maximising
    our ‘brain power’, which enhances
    learning and creativity.

    6
    Rules of mind mapping
    Need: coloured pens, blank unlined paper
    and your brain.

    1. Turn your paper to landscape position


    2. Draw a picture in the middle that represents your main idea.
    3. Draw some thick lines coming from the middle picture, this is for each
    of the main ideas.
    4. Draw pictures where possible.
    5. From each of the thicker lines, draw thinner connected lines
    spreading out like the branches of a tree. These are for extra ideas.

    All writing should be KEY words only


    Words printed in CAPITAL letters

    Each branch should have its own colour


    Keep adding new ideas!!
