Graphic organizers are critical in the comprehension process.  They help aide in learning and overall retention.  Students should be encouraged to organize thoughts and there are so many formats that these can take. Organizers can be used within all modes of communication.  I know as a classroom teacher, I used graphic organizers for listening, speaking, reading, and writing!  Here are some of my favorites!

A simple way to start is just by organizing thoughts around the questions of Who? What? Where? When? Why? and How?

    Thanks for exploring CWL!

    I have experience being a District Supervisor, teaching all levels of Spanish from I-VAP, serving as a Master Teacher, being a teacher trainer for Startalk and am a co author for the Entre Culturas Spanish III series by Wayside Publishing.
