The paper postulates that English literature teaching can be made an enriching and worthwhile experience for children through the use of graphic organizers introduced through visual literacy programs. The concept assumes that the study of literature is an experience that needs to be scaffolded step-by –step, and through the manipulation of all senses, in order to be internalized. It should be a felt and an absorbing experience. The paper presents the results generated through experimental method (Randomized Pretest/Posttest Control Group Design). Two groups of vii graders, who constitute the sample of the study, were exposed to a treatment of three days. The paper concludes that the use of graphic organizers can enhance higher order thinking skills and develop aesthetic sense. The paper recommends that the study may be used as an operative model in English literature and language settings.Curriculum goals that promote child-centered inquiry learning in science classrooms can only be met if teachers believe both in the pedagogy promoted and in the perspectives on science represented in that curriculum. Apart from those issues, an inquiryfocused curriculum requires teachers to engage their students in activities (such as inquiry investigations) that they themselves may not.
