Draw a Venn diagram on a piece of paper. A Venn diagram is two circles with part of each circle crossing over the other. Look at the cow and her calves below. How are they the same? How are they different? Write your ideas in your Venn diagram.

Holstein cows have spot patterns on their hides. Each cow has a different pattern. No two are the same!
