Beginning Arduino/Circuits - Middle School Age Appropriate

IMHO I think you are still at college (or at least high school) level, and needless blocks.

I would:

First chart:

  1. draw the pot and show the wiper going into a block with the text voltage to digital conversion. Having the block called "Process" is too diversionary.

  2. If statement:
    if voltage > 3
    true = turn on red light and turn off green
    false = turn on Green light and turn off red

Loop to the beginning.

Second chart:

start with the first chart then add the PWM to vary the LED brightness.

The below is one I did for myself to make sure I had the best approach. Maybe it will help.

I don't know your wife's knowledge for this type of design. But she may be valuable in trying to see what your are saying without any pre explanation.
