Strategy Of The Month: Using Graphic Organizers


GRAPHIC ORGANIZERS


  • "Graphic organizers are a helpful learning tool for students of all ages to organize, clarify, or simplify complex information—they help students construct understanding through an exploration of the relationships between concepts. Teacher-generated organizers are a useful scaffold to support student learning (Wise, 2019,p. 1)."

Graphic organizers have dual functions. They are effective as both a teaching and learning tool. As an instructional strategy it helps teachers:

  • Introduce a topic

  • Activate prior knowledge and link it with new information

  • Organize content to be presented and a visually summarize the lesson once taught

  • Assess student comprehension, identify and address any questions or clarifications needed
