I use
graphic organizers in every subject in my kindergarten classroom.
I
use Microsft Powerpoint to create my graphic organizers and Publisher
to make large copies that can be used whole group. Below are some of the
graphic organizers I've used. Some are deliberately left blank (it's very
simple to insert text boxes in both Powerpoint and Publisher). I converted
most of the graphic organizers to a pdf format. If you need them in powerpoint,
just email me at iluvkdg@gmail.com. You can also copy and paste these organizers
into your Smartboard software to use whole group interactively.
I am also including links that have many more graphic organizers. Since
many schools have had Thinking Maps training, I have also included a Thinking
Maps link that you might helpful.
