This document provides information about different tools for organizing and visualizing information, including diagrams, tables, and graphs. It defines each tool and provides examples. Diagrams are graphics that show relationships between parts of an idea. Tables systematically organize facts in rows and columns for comparison. Graphs show relationships between two or more sets of data, with common types being line graphs, bar graphs, and pie charts.

14. One day a countryman going to the nest of his goose found
there an egg all yellow and glittering. When he took it up it
was as heavy as lead and he was going to throw it away,
because he thought a trick had been played on him. But he
took it home on second thoughts, and soon found that it
was an egg of pure gold.
Every morning the same thing occurred, and he grew rich
by selling his eggs. As he grew rich he grew greedy; and
thinking to get at once all the gold the goose could give, he
killed it and opened it only to find nothing.
Greed often overreaches itself.

16. One afternoon a fox was walking through the forest and
spotted a bunch of grapes hanging from over a lofty
branch.
"Just the thing to quench my thirst,”

18. Taking a few steps back, the fox jumped and just
missed the hanging grapes. Again the fox took a few
paces back and tried to reach them but still failed.

19. Finally, giving up, the fox turned up his nose and
said, "They're probably sour anyway," and
proceeded to walk away.

A table is a
systematic

given as
numbers or
statistics.

more sets of ideas.
Line graphs, bar
graphs, and circle
graphs (or pie
