TWO graphic organizers of different complexity prompt students of all levels to think about what specific objects, people, images, events, ideas, words, etc. represent in a story or non-fiction text. Students cite evidence to support the meaning and significance of identified symbols. Both graphic organizers are different in complexity. The first graphic organizer targets Special Ed and ELL students, and the second graphic organizer, which is more complex, targets higher level students who need to be challenged further.

This free graphic organizer is great for having your second and third grade students work on using different parts of texts to determine the main idea. Easy to use, just print and use with any text! When introducing, or reinforcing, main idea with my students, I review multiple ways to help determine the main idea of stories.

To find the main idea we:

• look at the title
• look at the pictures
• look for repeated words
• reread the first sentence

My class uses this organizer to list information gained from each of those tips and then combine it together to write the main idea in the middle.

Perfect for cooperative learning too!

• create groups of 4
• assign each student one strategy
• have them share with their group what they found
• work together to determine main idea

Kids will have a great time building these three full-color DIY models, using just scissors and glue or clear tape. They can choose from Mummy, Spider or Ghost Buddies -- or make all three!

Follow us to learn about monthly freebies and deals!

This fun, engrossing activity teaches children how to follow directions in sequence to create fun mini-creatures to place on the table or give as gifts.
