The image you've uploaded is a
blank concept map template with
eight branches, commonly used in education to help students organize and visualize information.
What Is a Concept Map?
A concept map is a diagram that shows the relationships between concepts. It typically includes:
- A
central concept (in the middle circle).
-
Branching ideas or related sub-concepts (in the surrounding eight circles).
This particular map has:
- One large central circle.
- Eight smaller circles connected to it, arranged symmetrically around the center — forming a "flower" or "wheel" shape.

How to Use This Concept Map:
1.
Identify the Central Topic
- Decide on a main idea or topic (e.g., "Photosynthesis", "The Water Cycle", "Types of Energy").
- Write this in the
center circle.
2.
Add Related Subtopics
- In each of the
eight surrounding circles, write a key idea, fact, or component related to the central topic.
- For example, if the central topic is "Photosynthesis":
- Sunlight
- Chlorophyll
- Carbon Dioxide
- Water
- Oxygen
- Glucose
- Leaves
- Process
3.
Connect Ideas (Optional)
- You can draw arrows or lines between related branches to show connections (though this version doesn’t have space for extra lines).
4.
Label Connections (Optional)
- Add short phrases on the lines to describe how concepts are related (e.g., “uses”, “produces”, “requires”).
