Flowcharts
A flowchart is a diagram that shows the steps in a process or system.
It uses simple shapes like ovals, rectangles, diamonds, and arrows to show the order in which actions happen and where decisions are made.
Flowcharts help to:
Organise ideas clearly
Show how something works
Plan solutions before building them

CCTV to tackle anti-social teens 'scaring' shopkeepers
Shopkeepers on Shirley High Street in Southampton said they feel frightened to go to work because groups of teenagers have been causing trouble.Β
Some young people have smashed windows and damaged shops. In response, the Police and Crime Commissioner, Donna Jones, is investing Β£150,000 into extra CCTV cameras, more security workers, and greater police patrols for the next ten weeks. She also wants those responsible for the damage to face legal consequences in court. BBC Feeds
Discussion Point
Is installing more CCTV and security a good solution for stopping anti-social behaviour? What might be better ways to help both shopkeepers and young people who act up?
