This comprehensive unit plan has been designed to support students construct data displays including column graphs and picture graphs, where one picture can represent many values. The unit comes complete with an engaging presentation, multiple worksheets, group work activities and a student assessment to assess your student’s understanding.
Acquire data for categorical and discrete numerical variables to address a question of interest or purpose using digital tools; represent data using many-to-one pictographs, column graphs and other displays or visualisations; interpret and discuss the information that has been created
Analyse the effectiveness of different displays or visualisations in illustrating and comparing data distributions, then discuss the shape of distributions and the variation in the data
Construct suitable data displays, with and without the use of digital technologies, from given or collected data. Include tables, column graphs and picture graphs where one picture can represent many data values
