ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

This thesis was prepared under the supervision of Dr. Betty Holmes-Anthony and Dr. James Gelbman. I wish to express my gratitude to all of them for their assistance and guidance in this action research study.

A special thanks is offered to the 12 students at P753K who participated in this project. I also would like to express my appreciation to the Assistant Principal, Mrs. Valerie Wahrman for the invaluable materials she shared with me.

Finally, a particular thanks is offered to the Principal, Mr. Ketler Louissant, for his encouragement.

ABSTRACT

This thesis examines the effectiveness of graphic organizers along with the guiding principles for instructional practices for emotionally disturbed students who also have learning disabilities. Using a scoring rubric which has one dimension: performance (including level of accuracy in focusing on relevant information, building connections, integrating new information, and level of independence in completing graphic organizers), this thesis explores the students' performance with graphic organizers along with the strategies: consistent, coherent, creative. Completed graphic organizers scores by twelve students at P753K and observations suggest that graphic organizers along with the guiding principles produced high performance for this group of students.
