What to Focus On

  • Data is information in numbers.
  • We collect data by asking questions or observing things.
  • Data helps us answer questions like 'Which is the most popular?' or 'How many are there?'
  • Pictographs use pictures to represent data.
  • Each picture stands for a number of items.
  • We must check the key to know what each picture means.
  • Always look at the key to understand what each symbol means.
  • Count the symbols carefully.
  • Compare the rows to find the highest and lowest values.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Each symbol in a pictograph always stands for 1 item.

Half a symbol in a pictograph means half the number of people, not half the value.

Tally marks like IIII mean 5.
