Creating and Interpreting Graphs

Show What You Know

Making graphs helps you display information clearly and spot trends or patterns quickly.

How to Make a Graph

  • Collect your data (like the number of pets classmates have).
  • Choose the best graph (bar graph, line plot, or pictograph).
  • Label everything so it's easy to read and understand.

Using Your Graph

Look for which group has the most or least, or how things change over time.

Real-World Examples

  • Graphing favorite ice cream flavors in your class.
  • Charting the amount of rainfall each month.

Examples

  • Drawing a bar graph of how many books each friend has read.

  • Making a pictograph of the different pets in your neighborhood.
