Out of the seven literacy strategies that are mentioned in the
article, I choose graphic organizers. Graphic organizers can be used in the
classroom in many ways. It cab be used in all subject areas such as Reading,
Writing, Math etc. I can be used to organize information and make the content
easier to understand. Students can sort through the information and learn the
most important parts. It can serve as a visual aid to give students a better
understanding of how concepts are related. Graphic organizers help students
capture information and become better learners. The article,” Graphic Organizers: Guiding Principles and
Effective Practices,” mentions that in order for graphic organizers to be
effective in the classroom, some steps must be followed. First, graphic organizers
should be clear and easy to understand. Then, teachers must show students how
to use the graphic organizers to make it an effective tool. Lastly, graphic
organizers should be used frequently to help students learn the organizational
skills necessary to make the most of this fundamental tool.
