In part one of this blog, we explored ideas for choosing the right graphic organiser to support learners using English as an Additional Language (EAL). In this second part, we will look at how to use graphic organisers in the classroom. Below is a framework for selecting and using a graphic organiser:

  1. Establish the need for a graphic organiser.
  2. Choose the best type of graphic organiser to meet your requirements.
  3. Adapt the graphic organiser for your learners’ needs.
  4. Put it into use.

There is not space here to explain in detail every type of graphic organiser available. Instead let us explore two case studies which show how a teacher might choose a graphic organiser.
