For every level of literacy development and learning activity there is a graphic organizer to enhance the experience and guide the way. --Mira Pence
E. Ellis Ph.D. advises, that "Graphic organizers work best when instruction is informed, and explicit.”(2007),
One successful teacher who implements graphic organizers into instruction on a daily basis, said his method is to give students access to a variety of different graphic organizers and teach them how to use them. Then, whenever possible, he allows students to choose the graphic organizer that they feel helps them the most in accomplishing their task. This teacher is Brad W. Baxendell, who is also the author of “Consistent, Coherent, Creative: The Three Cs of Graphic Organizers”, which was Published in Teaching Exceptional Children magazine on January 1, 2003.
