Six Common Graphic Organizers

• DESCRIPTIVE• TIME SEQUENCE• PROCESS/CAUSE-EFFECT• EPISODE• GENERALIZATION/PRINCIPLE• CONCEPT

Descriptive Pattern

• Descriptive Patterns can be used to represent facts about specific people, places, things and events

• This information does not have to be in any specific order

Main Idea

Descriptive Pattern

Example

Elephants

Big

Gray

Big Ears

Tusks

Time Sequence Pattern

• Time sequence patterns organize events in a specific chronological order

• For example, the events leading up to the Vietnam War can be shown in a time sequence pattern organizer

Event 1 Event 2 Event 3 Event 4

Process/Cause-Effect Pattern• Process/Cause-Effect Patterns organize

information into a casual network leading to a specific outcome

Episode Pattern

Episode Pattern Organizers arrange data about specific events including:

1. Setting (time and place)

2. Specific People

3. A specific duration

4. A specific sequence of events

5. A particular cause and effect

Episode PatternAn Example would be information leading up to the Civil War

Generalization/Principle Patterns

• Gereralization/Principle Patterns organize information into general statements with supporting details.

• An Example would be statements supporting a hypothesis that economic conditions were the cause of the Civil War.

Concept Pattern• Concept Patterns organize information

around a word or phrase that represents entire classes or categories of people, places things or events

• The characteristics or attributes of the concept along with examples of each should be included in this example.

• An example would be a teacher asking a student to show the concept of fables along with examples and characteristics of them.
