WHAT IS A GRAPHIC ORGANIZER?
Graphic organizer is a robust visual learning tool
that helps teachers organize their students’ ideas.
Educators can use graphic organizers to present
complex concepts through interactive visuals.
Students and teachers can use graphic organizers to
brainstorm ideas and make hard decisions. In short,
graphic organizers are visual tools to organize and
present information.
WHAT ARE THE 2 REASONS
WHY WE NEED GRAPHIC
ORGANIZER?
THERE ARE 2 REASON WHY WE
NEED GRAPHIC ORGANIZER
1. Deeper understanding
The best thing about graphic organizers is that they help students
understand complicated things. In addition, when you pair graphic
elements along with reading material, it will provide a visual
perspective to your students.
For example, when you teach students the life cycle of butterflies,
they might not understand how a cocoon turns into a beautiful
butterfly. However, showing a proper diagram of butterflies’ life
cycle will provide a deeper understanding to your students.
Therefore, you should pair graphic tools with reading material to
improve their comprehension.
2.Helpful for all students
It is challenging for teachers to create a learning material
that can help everyone in the class. Especially if you have
sensory-challenged children in your class, it is impossible to
help all students with a learning resource.
Fortunately, graphic organizers make learning easy for
everyone. For example, attractive visuals can help
physically disabled children understand things they can’t
read. Similarly, children who are slow at learning can
leverage visuals. This way, teachers don’t have to create
different learning resources for each student. That will save
them a lot of time.
