I really like the Venn diagram that I utilize for the unit that my curricular design revolves around. The students really latch on to it as well as I add a good bit of silliness to the proceedings. As a portion of the chapter is to determine if a given quadrilateral is a parallelogram (due to the geometric properties it possesses) I talk about the portion of the diagram that includes parallelograms as a special "club" that one allows certain quadrilaterals to enter. The students really like it, potentially because it reminds them of the cliques that they face day in a day out.
