LO to solve a problem by organising and
interpreting data in bar charts.

What do we know about bar charts already?

We know a bar chart should
have a title. have numbered and labelled
axis. have clear bars showing how much of
something has been observed/recorded. be
numbered with sensible intervals. answer
questions about the data.

It might also have a legend.
A bar chart always has a title.
Vertical axis (y). Always labelled and numbered.
This shows what the colour of each bar represents.
The height of the bars show how many of something
was scored/recorded.
Horizontal axis (x). Always labelled.

How can we collect the information we need to
construct a bar chart?

recording by tally!
