Foldable Graphic Organizers for Interactive Notebooks

by 5 Comments

I am so excited to see so many or you using foldable graphic organizers in your interactive notebooks. The students really love these!   Organizing information in the Interactive notebooks helps students to retain information and can also be used as a study guide or review.

In the above photo, students explored a variety of objects with magnets and determined which items were magnetic and which items were not.   Simple pockets were made with the names of the objects and students completed the above sort to demonstrate their understanding.  

In the above photo, students explained their understanding of how volcanic eruptions can affect many aspects of life on Earth.  
Here is a simple foldable graphic organizer that is perfect for vocabulary.  The tab of the matchbook fold keeps the tabs tucked-in and they have less chance of getting bent when you open and close the notebook.  

Please use this FREE printable template below to create your own vocabulary fold! Everyone loves freebies!
And a four door fold.
Print and use the freebie foldable graphic organizer below!
Please take a look at all the templates for interactive notebooks I have in my store.

My students loved this unit. I was able to present different elements of it throughout the month. It is hard to find interesting non-fictional, age-appropriate text for my students that they will enjoy. This was a great unit that aligned well for my students who have very different goals within the same group.

I am so impressed with this unit which manages to be distance learning and hands-on at the same time.  Really well thought out and engaging activities that allow students to practice each of the eight Science and Engineering Practices.  Really no prep for me!

The elephant article was excellent but I also thought the lab on dissecting a flower was broken down so easily, even telling me where to get inexpensive flowers!  This resource helped me teach this challenging standard in an engaging way.  Worth every penny!
