Section 13 Graphic Organizers

 

There is a ton of online free graphic organizers that you can customize for your students. If a student types into a graphic organizer, then they can cut and paste the words into the paper. If a document is saved on a computer, it is harder to lose than actual paper. Yes, printing can always be an issue, but with file sharing and email that is easy to overcome. I recommend typing on your graphic organizers. Teachers can also customize these documents to use with a class. You can create them from scratch, but that takes a lot more time. With so many that are online and free, I suggest just downloading. PDF graphic organizers can be converted to electronic formats. Microsoft Word graphic organizers can be uploaded to Google Documents and converted. There are a number of great options to choose from. 


Google Keep Author’s Pick 

I would recommend using Google Keep as a graphic organizer if you use Google Documents.
