Group Activity
Divide the Class in four groups
Each group will be given materials and an activity sheet.
They will be given 5 minutes to do the activity and afterwards they
must choose a representative to report their work to the class.
Each group must arrange the scramble pieces of a picture.
They must identify what kind of graph was being shown in the
puzzle and answer the following questions:
1. What type of graph is shown in the puzzle?
2. What information does the graph provide?
3. Describe one advantage and one disadvantage of using this
type of graph.
Group 1: Bar graph
Group 2: Pictograph
Group 3: Pie Graph
Group 4: Line Graph

GRAPHICS
Derived from the Greek word graphikos, meaning "drawn" or
"written,"
Graphein means to write as well as to represent by means of
lines.

They convey ideas through simple, bold, legible, brief, non-verbal
experiences during teaching learning process.

which lead into trunk. The branches in turn represent developments
and relationships.
Useful in showing developments resulting from a combination of

government or the development of a manufacturing process.

 Table Charts
Used for comparisons or for listing advantages and
disadvantages of a business or an organization.
DIAGRAMS

Differentiating Instruction

Teachers are responsible for teaching hundreds of kids everyday and ensuring that
they are learning. In order to do this successfully, teachers must be aware of the various

learning types in each of their classes and how to tailor instruction to meet each learner.
Graphic aids provide the differentiation needed to ensure that all learning types have been
adequately introduced to key skills or concepts.

Provides Access to Content

Graphic aids provide much needed access to content when learners are low-level
readers or ESL students. Using magazines, videos or concept maps are a way to teach these
students the lessons' objectives while also keeping them interested in the material. Without
graphic aids, these students will find it difficult to comprehend the lesson and keep up with
instruction.

Facilitates Greater Comprehension

After introducing a new concept or skill, graphic aids can be used to facilitate greater
comprehension of the material. They allow students to spend more time with the content
and solidifies understanding. When students work together on graphic aids, there's a
scaffolding of information and an exchange of ideas. This experience, along with the use of
the graphic aids, helps students master material, increasing their confidence in their ability.

Engages All Learners

Graphic aids are a great tool to use to engage all students in the learning process.
Today's students need constant stimulation so lecturing is not an effective teaching strategy
by itself. The use of graphic aids allows teachers to vary the delivery of lessons and keep
students interested in learning.

Types of Graphic Aids

There are a plethora of graphic aids that are available to teachers for use in the
classroom. Graphic organizers are among the most popular graphic aid used. They can be
teacher created, as well as, found on the internet. Videos are also another great resource and
can be found in abundance online and in many school libraries. And finally, Smartboards
have grown in popularity as a graphic aid used in many of today's schools. These high-tech
graphic aids provide students with the opportunity to interact as a whole class or
individually with course content.
