A graphic organizer (aka a map OR word web) is usually a one-page
form with blank areas for the student to fill in with related ideas and information.
Some organizers are very specific; others can be used with many topics.
The information on a graphic organizer could just as easily be filled in on a form or written as a list.
The organizer gives students another way to see the information.
Some organizers allow for the information to be written or drawn,
opening the activity up to younger grades.
When your class uses an organizer for the first time, it is best that a sample organizer be drawn on the board for the class to fill in together.
- If you have a projector/lite pro available, it would be optimal to walk students through the steps of filling out the organizer using the computer.
- This also gives the opportunity for children to understand that sometimes there might be more answers than there are spaces on the organizer.
Graphic organizers can be used to reinforce topics from any subject.
Enjoy!
