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.
