What to Focus On

  • Pictographs use pictures to represent data.
  • Each picture stands for a specific number of items.
  • A key is necessary to understand the value of each picture.
  • Tally marks are used to count and group data.
  • Each of the first four counts is a vertical line.
  • The fifth count is a diagonal line across the four vertical lines.
  • Bar graphs use bars to represent data.
  • Bars can be vertical or horizontal.
  • The length of the bar shows the value.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Each picture in a pictograph always stands for 1 item.

Half a symbol in a pictograph means half a person or animal.

Tally marks are just lines; no need to group them in fives.
