ABSTRACT
Graphic organizers are visual tools used by teachers to assist students in analyzing, interpreting, and making sense of the content. Graphic organizers come in many forms, depending on their use. Graphic organizers are often used as advanced organizers at the beginning of a lesson or activity to assist students in understanding the content. They also may be used for practice with activities that require students to make sense of the content. The teacher might choose to use graphic organizers to gather formative or summative data. To accommodate the needs of all learners, some organizers may be blank, while others may be partially completed, depending on the readiness level of the students.
