INTEGRATING GRAPHIC ORGANIZERS AND FLASHCARDS WITH CLASSROOM MATERIALS TO IMPROVE CLASSROOM ENGAGEMENT

Abstract

Learning how to integrate graphic organizers in teaching makes a lesson more connected to students’ interests and supports them with more authentic materials. This data will explore using graphic organizers and flashcards to create collaborative hands-on activities, interactive group-work experiences, and collaborative discussions and presentations for the language classrooms. All activities during any lesson must have an academic purpose and be aligned with objectives. These materials are used for reviewing homework, preparing for new topics, and having massive interaction during class. Readers will learn how to create original short interactive tasks using flashcards and graphic organizers that help their learners work cooperatively and relate deeper to their educational purpose.
