This study aims to investigate the effect of mind mapping technique on fifth grade students. Presenting the information in a meaningful way is considered as the fundamental responsibility of teachers. Teachers can use mind mapping techniques for constructing, organizing, and relating the information with prior concepts. For this purpose the researchers used a quasi-experimental design with a sample of sixty students. Two sections of grade five were taken as intact groups to fulfill the requirement of the study. Both the groups comprised equal participants (thirty in each section).Participants were pre tested and then the intervention was exposed to teach experimental group. Mind mapping technique was used to teach the Participants of experimental group whereas traditional mode of teaching was used for control group. After the completion of treatment, both groups were post tested and their scores were compared by using paired sample t-test. Findings of this study disclosed a significant difference between scores of two groups and the results were in favor of mind mapping technique.
