What is a Flow Chart?

A flow chart is a diagram that shows steps, a process, or a system in sequential order. Flow charts can be used for pretty much anything from a project plan, to a schedule of the day’s events. Flow charts use all kinds of shapes, arrows, and layouts to make them interesting and easy to understand. A flow chart worksheet takes a flow chart, or part of a flow chart, and lays it out on a page. These worksheets may have a single sequence or different branches to follow.

Why are Flow Charts Important?

Flow charts are important because they help students identify the necessary steps of a process so that they can visualize the bigger picture and all of the parts of the process at once. Flow charts organize priorities, data, goals, and so much more. When completing an important task, flow charts help us to figure out where we are in the process, and ensure that we complete all of the essential steps to complete it. The flow chart is designed to help with a step by step process by focusing on one step at a time, and often include choices or options that may change the direction of the path.
