Well, I think I did it. I created a graphic using Word that I may someday use in either a Phys. Ed. or Health class. I began with Insert a diagram, only to find out that I did not have the skill, or it was not possible to create my pyramid using this function. So, I designed my own pyramid as best as I could in Paint. I copy and pasted the picture to my Word document, and then used Word Art from there, so that I could move the words around easily and make them the size, shape, and color that is most convenient and eye pleasing. I played around with some clip art to match the categories, but found that they made it look cluttered, and harder to understand. An exercise that I might do with this pyramid is have a separate sheet of a bunch of pictures, and let the students get involved by deciding which picture belongs where. Have a look for yourself:
