Graphic Organizers

 My Religion Graphic Organizer

2 stars and 1 wish:

Star-  I had many descriptive images in my organizer and helps show information for each holiday.

Star- I used my space wisely and worked thoroughly on my project.

Wish- I could've shown my pictures while presenting because last time I didn't have enough eye contact and not presenting with visuals. I want to use all my space for this project so it won't look plain.


My Renaissance Graphic Organizer





I would give myself a "B" because I included some of the criteria/expectations for this organizer legend, appropriate information,  space used wisely, easy to read, well organized, etc. . Now I remember not to put information in full sentences but write it in key points because it would more difficult to add information and making it confusing to others. Next time, I should use all of my space for the future so it could be more specific and detailed with key points.

For these two assignments I learned that I should add key points instead of full sentences and it would take a lot of space and it could be hard to understand for this organizer. I heard that it could be useful for final exams eg. Math, English, Science, etc.

 I am really proud that I learn lots for this project because I get observe more facts about the Renaissance and religion. I am proud that I put a lot of details into my project because I could show my organizer to others for feedback also show what my completed work looks like.

Graphic Organizers

My Religion Graphic Organizer



2 stars and 1 wish:
  • Star: I included many pictures/ symbols to help display my information.
  • Star: I have dark letters that are very clear and easy to see.
  • Wish: I want to use more of my white space, so that some places aren't crowded together, and some aren't empty with white space.

My Renaissance Graphic Organizer:



I think my graphic organizer would be in the "A - B" range because I included all of the criteria/ expectations for the graphic organizer- well organized, appropriate title/ name, pictures, colour coding, legend, etc. Also, I remembered to write all of my details in point form- not in full sentences! However, I did not include my own words for some details because it was a little difficult to change some of them.


During these two assignments, I learned that drawing a graphic organizer is a great way to use during presentations, speeches, etc. Also, it is a great way to show your work, and show what you've learned.
I am most proud of actually finishing the graphic organizers on time, because it was a lot of work and effort, and I had a short period of time to finish them. I am proud that I could show people the work that I completed, and what I learned about religion and the Renaissance.
