Molly Warner John Griffin Middle SchoolConcept Maps… in the Language Arts Classroom?: Concept Maps… in the Language Arts Classroom? As a new teacher, I have found several different ways I can use concept mapping within my reading and writing classes. These ideas seem to encourage student participation and hold each student accountable for their work process and completion.Summarizing Lectures: Summarizing Lectures To prepare my 7th grade students for high school and college, I would have them use a concept map to take lecture notes given on a particular day in the computer lab. This could easily be done with the “Rules of the Computer Lab” or “Ways to use ‘Study Island’” just to give students the opportunity to familiarize themselves with concept mapping. How about Reviewing for an Exam?: How about Reviewing for an Exam?
