Book excerpt: This paper examines the effects of the use of graphic organizers on the reading comprehension skills of three elementary school students from a large Midwestern city. Reading comprehension is a milestone skill that is essential for students to master early on, in order to be successful across disciplines. Students often struggle to comprehend informational text due to its complexity, using graphic organizers can help students learn the structure of informational text and organize the text in a way that is easier for them to comprehend. Students read about a text, organized the information in the text and wrote a summary of the information that they gathered. The researcher found that the explicit teaching on the use of graphic organizers was effective in improving the overall summary writing skills of the participants.

Both of the subjects made significant gains in retell, vocabulary and comprehension, leading to an increased reading level. The use of graphic organizers to support metacognitive reading practice is a promising practice and has many applicable uses for the classroom. The results of this study indicate that explicit instruction on processes like self-monitoring for comprehension can increase comprehension of an instructional level non-fiction text.
