What type of graphic organizer(s) might the student require in order to visually represent and organize the concepts, feelings, or behaviors that relate to this particular topic?
Many graphic organizers can be customized for the student to support this skill. Here are two examples:
Is there a way to visually or thematically incorporate the student’s interests into this graphic organizer to increase motivation and engagement?
This may be as simple as using favorite colors to align with the “good” ratings and least favorite colors to align with the “bad” ratings. Other options involve actually using these interests within the content of the organizer. For example, the “Do I feel sick? Scale” from above could be adjusted to use pictures of the student demonstrating each level on the scale, or images of favorite characters depicting each level. Incorporating the student’s interest may seem challenging, but this process can actually help with motivation if the student engages in creating or editing the organizer to address his interests!
What additional visual clarity cues (e.g. icons, bolding, highlighting, color-coding) might you add to the graphic organizer to clarify concepts and to direct attention to key details?
In order to align this intervention topic area with the unique needs of the student, do you need to create a graphic organizer in the View2do program?
