Hexagons Generator (HTML5 / Word)!

A generator to create online 'drag and drop' hexagons [sample]
You can also export your work as a worksheet [sample]

2. Introduction / Instructions for students

HEXAGON ESSAY-PLANNING TOOL. DRAG and DROP these hexagons into categories of your choice. You can color-code hexagons, and can create new hexagons (e.g. as titles for each group) by double-clicking anywhere on the canvas. When you are finished, you can use your work as the basis of an essay plan, presentation or project!

3. Hexagons Text: separate each with a newline

Causes for Union victory in the Civil War

Green = primary sources added at the end into appropriate categories

Consequences of the Black Death

Orange = handwritten hexagons based on video notes
