It seems as if graphic organizers are all I've been hearing about lately! While I never used them as a student, I have seen many students in my observation school depend on them to compose essays and reports. Here is a link to a site that offers free templates and ideas on graphic organizers. Have a look! I found this through the Read-Write-Think website....Sofia R.

Wow, cool site, Sofia.
My fav is the crossword puzzle maker. My host teacher for fieldwork observation just used something like this recently. The quiz on literary terms (including protagonist, setting, plot) was a crossword puzzle. That's super fun. I wouldn't necessarily want to use it as a quiz, though. Perhaps it would be a fun homework assignment? Or maybe if we give this site to the students, and have them make a crossword as a part of a project?
I'm definitely going to use this.
I've never used graphic organizers either. It seems to me that they are the new Roman Numeral outline (which I still use before writing a paper!) for today's short attention spanned, media bombarded kids who would be bored reading all the words in a traditional outline.
