     There is no doubt that every useful tool affect in the teaching process.Graphics play a major role to stimulate the learners to be more active towards contents. A graphic organizer guides the learner’s thinking as they fill in and build a visual map or frame work or diagram. Many linguists such as Chomsky indicate that introduce the words with pictures and graphs will take root more than produce them in an isolated way. Nowadays, graphics are not the most vital trend in English teaching just, but it is exceeded to be in all subjects and fields, simply because graphics develop our Creative thinking beside our knowledge.

     Teachers can use graphic organisers to introduce different things:

• Cause and effect

• Note taking

• Comparing and contrasting concepts

• Organizing problems and solutions

• Relating information to main themes and ideas

• Organizational skills

• Vocabulary knowledge

• Sequencing

This kind of tool will organise the learning process and develop the students' attitudes because this tool that can be used to visualise and organise information. Therefore, it can be used to teach all skills Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, simply it can enrich our students and it will help the teacher to be creative at same time. Graphics organisers provide many benefits to students who use them including:

• Assist students structure writing project.

• Develop the students ability to make decisions.

• Help students to classify ideas and communicate.

• Leading students in demonstrating their thinking process.

• Helping students increase reading comprehension.

• Help students to brainstorm.

• Motivate students to organize essential concepts and ideas.

• Making it clear how to break apart a story into the main elements (intro, rising action, climax, etc.).

           After that, I can say it is really essential to build a creative thinking and innovative minds.
