Abstract

    The concept of graphic organizers fosters better student achievement with traditional teaching method. Survey research was used to gather quantitative data from population. The population of this study was elementary school teachers in Lahore. The sample consisted of 75 teachers. It is concluded that graphic organizers are an effective strategy for enhancing various skills in students’ performance in the class. As both male and female teachers have same opinion about graphic organizers in classrooms for the betterment of students. The traditional teaching style is an activity-based style, which will eventually improve the Education system of Pakistan as a whole because education is thought to be a backbone of a country. The delivery of the lesson by the use of graphic organizers seemed to promote more student success than the use of the lecture method and should be promoted in classroom activities
