Chapter 6 3Qs blog post.

1 Q.  Quote w/ Reasoning - "When matched carefully with text, graphic organizers can help students clarify the connections and relationships they are finding in the reading."   I chose this quote because it sums up the reason graphic organizers are used perfectly.  We use graphic organizers to help students make connections and point out improtant info in texts.

2 Q.  Question - How can you use graphic organizers for assessments and check for actual understanding?   I do not feel students have to put enough information about the topic to truly show their understand of a topic.

3 Q.  Personal Connection - I personally connected with the part that dicussed when graphic organizers can be used.  It said that they could be used during a "reading" lesson not just before and after.  In high school my chemistry teacher required us to take class notes on bubble chart, graphic organizers that she created.  This was a terror!!  We needed to know way to much information to put it all on a tiny graphic organizer with no other notes.   Also, when you are taking that many notes a bubble graph graphic organizer can not be organized, and that is a pain in the but for someone who like organized notes.
