Did you know we learn most of our ideas visually. One great strategy for thinking is to use graphic organizers like mind maps and concept maps. One such organizer use is 4-Square Writing:
These can be used from primary school all the way to university. Try to see how many ways you can think to use this organizer. For instance, put a topic like “Habitats” in the center, then write “First” “Then” “Next” “Finally,” one in each of the 4 squares and dot jot 4 kinds of information you can talk about “Habitats” for.
