Compare and Contrast

Directions: Give your opinion about the two (Learners are listening and participating)
editorial cartoons on “POVERTY” by

Okay, how do you compare these two editorial

cartoons? And how do you contrast them?

Now, we are going to talk about what is the

difference of Compare and Contrast.

What is Compare?

- When you compare, you look at the

ways two or more things are alike.

Example

 Bicycles are like cars because they both move

on wheels.
 Cats are like dogs because they both have fur.
 CD’s are like MP3 players because they both
play music.

What is Contrast?

- When you contrast, you look at the

ways two or more things are
different.
Example

 Bicycles are different from cars because one is

powered by humans
and one is powered by gas.
 Cats are different dogs because one barks and
one meows.
 CD’s are different from MP3 players because
they play music through
different devices.
