Description
This using a pictograph to represent data worksheet gives third graders a small set of real-world data and asks them to show it as a scaled picture graph. Five friends counted the stickers they collected, and the totals are listed in a simple table. On the graph, every star stands for ten stickers and half a star stands for five, so students cannot copy a number straight across. They have to divide each count by the key first, and three of the five counts land on a half star. That step is what moves third grade graphing beyond the one-to-one picture graphs of earlier grades.
Part A holds the data table, a picture key that shows both a whole star and a half star, and an empty pictograph with a row for each friend. Part B asks four questions about the finished graph: how many stars belong in one row, how many more stickers one friend collected than another, the total for all five friends, and a written explanation of a classmate’s mistake with the key. Have students draw every row before answering, then check each answer against the graph they made. The answer key on the second page shows the completed pictograph and a model written answer, so this 3rd grade pictograph worksheet is quick to check.
What’s Included
- A five-row data table showing how many stickers each friend collected
- A picture key where one star stands for ten stickers and half a star stands for five
- An empty pictograph with a labeled row for every friend
- Three questions that read, compare and total the data, plus one written-response item
- A full answer key with every row drawn and a model written answer
Three Reasons This Helps Kids
- Drawing the stars, rather than reading a finished graph, teaches students what a key really means.
- Half symbols show students that a picture can stand for part of a group, not just a whole one.
- Explaining a classmate’s mistake makes students put the rule for the key into their own words.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
- Ask students to read the key out loud before they start: one star means ten stickers.
- Count each finished row by tens and fives to check that it matches the table.
- Collect a real set of class data, such as favorite fruits, and use this using a pictograph to represent data worksheet as the model for graphing it.
- Talk through question four together: why do three stars show only thirty stickers?
