Working with Visuals

.

The visual prepared would give the students a view of how a flowchart looks and its functions.  They will be able to identify the shapes used and should be able to replicate it.  Students should be able to grasp the importance of the flowchart and apply it to other subject areas. The students would be asked to create a flowchart for the process of buying a pizza using the necessary auto shapes in Microsoft Word.

The visual we created was a chart showing a sample of a flowchart.  The chart was created in Microsoft Word, and then it was taken to be enlarged. Afterwards a picture was taken and then each group member posted it to their blog. 

The challenges faced were in how to incorporate word wrap on the chart since the students needed to identify the shapes as part of the lesson.  We then decided to make two pieces: the first one without any notes/description  then the second piece would be shown to identify the shapes and give a brief description of their function/purpose  .
