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.
