Deep in Data Assessment
Use this 2-page assessment to assess your students’ ability to construct a picture and column graph. (This could also be done through the use of digital technologies).
Learning goals
- 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 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.
