THEY ARE A GREAT TOOL THAT ALL TEACHERS SHOULD BE USING WITH THEIR CLASSES. IT'S OFTEN SAID THAT A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS. THAT IS A GOOD WAY TO UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE AND LONG TERM USE OF THESE TOOLS. MANY SCIENTISTS OFTEN SAY THE FIRST THING THAT THEY LOOK AT, WHEN EVALUATING RESEARCH, ARE THE GRAPHS ASSOCIATED WITH THEM. GRAPHS ARE SIMILARLY TO OUR ORGANIZER CONCEPT BECAUSE THEY VISUALLY ALLOW TO UNDERSTAND DATA QUICKLY. MANY STUDENTS FIND THAT AS THEY START TO USE ORGANIZERS MORE, THEY COME TO RELY ON THEM FOR ALL ASPECTS OF THEIR EDUCATION. We put together a furious series of organizers. as you scroll down the pages you will come to find well of 500 organizers at your disposal. Make sure that you turn on the "background" printing setting for your printer. Better yet, just make sure to Print Preview each one before you go. We wouldn't want you to waste ink or paper.

CAUSE AND EFFECT In just about every work there is main cause to the problem that is explored in the work. This topic looks at the cause and what is outset by it. CHAIN MAPS These are great for historical and timeline based events. CHARACTER ANALYSIS MAPS Usually this is used to compare just the two main characters in a work, but we have multiple versions for many different characters in a work. CLOCKS Are you working on telling time? This section will make your life much easier. CIRCLE CHARTS A new take on the best way to really engage on a topic. CLASSROOM ORGANIZERS A bunch of great printables to make your day in the classroom much more manageable. CYCLES Mostly science related topics apply here, but historic events fit this often.

FACT AND OPINION A great way to analyze current events and make a huge impact statement. FISHBONES A very cool way to apply thought to complex problems. Great for brain storming. FLOWER CHARTS A great way to work with related concepts that are all intertwined. Also works great with Mother's Day and any family related event. KWL Teachers love to use this when introducing a new topic. LANGUAGE ARTS ORGANIZERS These organizers will help students better communicate their ideas. MATH ORGANIZERS You'll find over 40 of them to print and help you with complex math concepts. PMI CHARTS This is an interesting take on KWL diagrams. Almost like a pros versus cons map, with some facts thrown in there. PARAGRAPH ORGANIZERS This can either help you write the perfect paragraph or understand one that was already written. PERSUASION CHARTS If you are going to put the perfect advertisement or presentation together, this would really help you out.

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF GRAPHIC ORGANIZERS? Graphic organizers are the helping hands of teachers and students in a classroom. They make learning easier, specifically at a young age. These are visual demonstrators of relationships between cause and effect, facts and opinions, and ideas. A visual guide such as a graphic organizer allows students to be more prepared and helps educators communicate ideas to the students more effectively. The people in the education sector and other industries use graphic organizers to brainstorm ideas, make decisions, and solve problems. There are many graphic organizers used in a classroom or a workspace. The common ones and their descriptions are listed below. Venn Diagram A Venn diagram tells us about the relationship between two quantities by identifying their differences and similarities in two overlapping circles. KWL Chart These are charts used in elementary schools to introduce the concept of critical thinking to the students. It is a three-column chart in which things are characterized according to the three headings: - What I Know, - What I Want to Know, and - What I Learned PMI Chart A PMI chart is used to weigh the pros and cons of a decision or an idea. This is another three-column chart in which plusses, minuses, and interests are categorized to decide on an idea. T-Chart It is a simple compare and contrast chart for two ideas, things, or between characters. A T-chart is also used for listing advantages and disadvantages or pros and cons. Story Maps Story maps make reading a novel or story easier for students. There are six boxes drawn on a page in which a student must write points extracted from the novel under specific headings, i.e., characters, setting, plot, themes, conflict, and resolution. These maps increase the comprehensive skills of a student and provide a structure to his random thoughts about the story. Flowcharts These are the basic charts used in every subject at the school level and in every profession. A flowchart is a graphic organizer used to frame information into a sequence. It can be used to write a process of making a product or following a recipe, or telling the events that occurred in an order. Concept Maps These web maps link all the information as pointers toward a single idea. It is a perfect way of brainstorming ideas. The maps also aid in revising concepts and improving long-term memory. It is a helpful tool for students, engineers, analysts, and people of multiple professions. To Sum It Up Life without a graphic organizer seems hectic since their invention has enhanced the quality of learning and eased the minds of teachers. A graphic organizer can fulfill the following purposes: - It enables metacognitive thinking skills and aids in enhancing inductive reasoning. - It helps the team or students to see the bigger picture. - The linking of information and concepts turns out to be a summarized version which can save time from the long hard reading tasks again and again. WHY ARE GRAPHIC ORGANIZERS HELPFUL FOR STUDENTS AND TEACHERS? Graphic organizers are text-inclusive visual learning aids that serve to summarize and organize data. This allows for clear comprehension and understanding of any relationships, concepts, or even process flows, making it an ideal choice for teachers to use. They enable teachers to introduce new concepts, link ideas with previously acquired knowledge, and facilitate the student's learning experience by helping develop an interactive classroom setting. These organizers are pertinent in the academic journey of students of all ages, from kindergarten to university. The Different Types There are a variety of graphic organizers one might encounter in their academic journey as they cater to specific purposes of teaching, reading, writing, brainstorming, and comparing and contrasting. The most frequently used graphic charts are as follows: Sequence Charts One of the most commonly used graphic organizers is the sequence chart. From making a chronological order of historical events to process flows for industrial setups and note-taking to lesson planning, sequence charts aim to summarize and connect events. Venn Diagrams These are graphical representations of two or more interlocking circles. They can help visualize word problems and facilitate students in mathematical calculations. While Venn diagrams are frequently encountered in Mathematics, they are not limited to them. Venn diagrams can show the similarities and differences between two or more ideas for abstract concepts. Idea Webs These are represented by a circle in the middle containing a topic or theme surrounded by smaller-sized circles. These are pertinent for brainstorming ideas and help in the storytelling process by helping develop and realize a plot before writing. The circle in the middle serves as a topic or theme, and the surrounding circles have details of events or characters involved. THE IMPORTANCE OF GRAPHIC ORGANIZERS They help both teachers and students. Teachers must aim to explain and illustrate the use of each graphic organizer with a particular goal in mind so that students can learn to effectively utilize this learning aid and adapt it for their specific use. For Teachers - Graphic organizers can help teachers plan their lessons and deliver lectures with preestablished learning outcomes. - Aid in simplifying complex problems that students may find challenging to comprehend. - Allow for a quick recap of the lesson before moving on to a new topic. - Help access and identify areas of weakness in any topic and enable teachers to elaborate further on a specific part without going over the entire lesson. For Students - Facilitate learning and comprehension as it breaks down new concepts into understandable parts. This is of primary importance for students who may have learning disabilities. - Serve as a visual aid in communicating their ideas during presentations or for research paper abstracts. - Enables students' cognitive abilities of brainstorming, contrasting, analysis, and organization. * * * * * * © Copyright All Rights Reserved - EasyTeacherWorksheets.com WE CARE ABOUT YOUR PRIVACY Our site is supported by personalized advertising shown to you while you visit.
