Why should we use flow charts
Brainstorming
Advantages of using flow charts
When you create a flow chart, your thinking about the following will be made clear:
your understanding of the initiating event and subsequent events, i.e., your ability to rank;
your understanding of the stages in the process, i.e., your ability to order;
your understanding of how the stages are connected, i.e., your ability to link;
your understanding of the goal or final outcome, i.e., your ability to conclude.
What is a flow chart？
Tips for making a fruit salad
Use fruit in season. Make sure it is fresh.
Use fruit of different colours and try to make your fruit salad look as good as it tastes. For example, red apples, green pears, purple grapes and oranges together will make the salad look very colourful.
Prepare the fruit salad just before you are going to eat it. some of the fruit will quickly turn brown when you leave it in the air for some time.
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Choose fresh fruit in season
Mix them together with fruit salad
Use fruit of different colours
Flow charts are one type of graphic organizer
where our thinking can be made visible. Creating a flow chart from oral, visual, and written texts will help us think more clearly, and reflect on our thinking. Flow charts visually represent textual relationships that are linked by time. In creating a flow chart, we describe a sequence of
events, stages, phases, or actions that lead to an
outcome.

Bears are in danger
Bears are very lovely wild animals. But they are not as happy as before and they are facing many problems. We need to help them.
Bears are big and heavy. They have large bodies, short and strong legs and large paws. Their tails are short.
Most bears eat meat and fish, but some also eat plants and insects.
Bears can run very fast. They are good at climbing and swimming.
Bears move around slowly in the daytime. They sleep through the winter. They seldom hurt people.

Sadly, bears are facing some serious problems. Hunters catch them for fur and paws. That’s not only because some every expensive clothes are made from their fur but also because their paws can be made into a rare and delicious dish.
Bears are in danger now and we must take action right away. Here are some ideas. We can build more natural reserves for wild animals. Also, we need to make laws to protect wild animals from being killed.
The number of bears is getting smaller and smaller. If we do nothing, there will be no bears left in the near future.

Create your own flow chart
Before you start reading, ask yourself why you are reading this book. Most people read for two main reasons–pleasure or knowledge. Being specific and clear about your reading purpose not only helps you to refuse books that you don't need to read, but also reminds you why reading the book is important to you as you are reading it.
Whether you are reading fiction or nonfiction, it's important to enjoy what you read. Your friends may recommend books that they love, but those books might not necessarily be the ones you enjoy. Reading the books you enjoy is a great journey.
How to be a better reader
You may have selected some boring books because of some reasons. You may have chosen the books that you are attracted to. But as you are reading them, there may still be some books that you won't enjoy reading. Whenever you realize that you aren't enjoying the book you are reading, give it up. Remember reading shouldn't be a boring thing.
Having a reading goal helps you figure out how much reading you need to do in a week or even a day. It is better for you to have a reading plan. You can have the feeling of being successful when you realize your goal.
