Abstract:
The performance of English-language pupils falls far short of expectations. To improve their performance, the researcher investigated the effect of the graphic organiser method on the academic performance of primary school pupils in Atiba, LGA., Oyo State. This study adopted a pretest and posttest quasi-experimental control design. A simple random sampling technique was used to select four schools, two public and two private. The English Language Performance Test (ELPT) provides pretest and posttest marks. English teachers validated it. Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC) was used to estimate instrument reliability at 0.83. The data gathered were analysed using the covariance analysis (ANCOVA). All assumptions were tested to a value level of 0.05. One outcome revealed a graphic organizer effect (F (1; 176) = 3.544, P < 0.05). I was recommended that teachers be enlightened on the effectiveness of graphic organisers on the academic performance of pupils through organised seminars and workshops
