What to Focus On
- Data means information in the form of numbers or facts.
- Raw data is unorganized, while organized data is easy to read and understand.
- We use pictographs, bar graphs, pie charts, and line graphs to represent data.
- Pictographs use symbols to represent data.
- A key tells us how many items each symbol stands for.
- We count the symbols and multiply by the key value to get the actual number.
- Bar graphs use bars to show data values.
- Bars can be vertical or horizontal.
- The scale helps convert numbers into bar lengths.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
One symbol in a pictograph always means one object.
The tallest bar in a bar graph always means the largest number, even if the scale is not 1 unit per square.
Pie charts show the exact number of people directly from the size of the slice.
