Learning goals

  • We are learning to record, compare and discuss data and create one-to-one displays.
  • We are learning to draw simple data displays and make simple inferences.
  • We are learning to represent and compare data displayed in various graphs, e.g. lists, tally charts, column graphs, picture graphs.
  • We are learning to create displays of data using lists, table and picture graphs and interpret them.
  • We are learning to create, compare and interpret data displayed in various graphs, including using software, e.g. lists, tables and infographics.
  • We are learning to collect and organise data and create graphs, tables and lists.
  • We are learning to collect, interpret and discuss data using digital tools, e.g. tally charts, digital tables, graphing or spreadsheets; represent data using many-to-one pictographs, column graphs and other displays.
  • We are learning to construct data displays from given or collected data, including tables, column graphs and picture graphs where one picture can represent many data values.
  • We are learning to acquire data and construct displays including column graphs, dot plots and tables appropriate for the type of data, determining the highest frequency (mode) of the data set.
  • We are learning to construct displays, including column graphs, dot plots and tables, appropriate for the type of data.
