What to Focus On
- A pictograph uses icons to show data.
- The scale tells how many items one icon stands for.
- A scale helps show large numbers with fewer pictures.
- Joseph Uncle records play items using a pictograph.
- He uses a scale of 1 icon = 5 items.
- The data includes toys, board games, and sports items.
- A pictograph can be made with another suitable scale.
- The chosen scale must stay the same throughout one pictograph.
- Do not mix scales from different pictographs.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Every pictograph uses the same scale, so one picture always means the same number.
A half icon or a partly drawn icon can be ignored because it is not a full picture.
In a pictograph, the number of pictures is the same as the number of items.
