Organization is key to learning effectively. Logically organized information is easier for our brain to understand, remember, and recall. 

But chances are that our students don't know the 5 ways they can organize information because it isn't something taught in school. At least it wasn't when I was in.

In any case there's no reason not to teach them. In fact I believe we should. To make it easier I've created just the tool to help you show them.

Remember the acronym LATCH to recall the 5 ways to organize information.

Location, Alphabet, Time, Category, and Hierarchy.

They've been around.

The infographic below describes them in more detail.

I hope you enjoy it and use as you see fit.

Alas! Let's teach students how to organize stuff. let's teach them how to learn.

You have the power to change lives. Use it often so they can change the world.
