Measurement, chance and data

0.5
  • Interpretation of pictographs, and collection and sorting of items or data in preparation for the creation of a pictograph

1.0 Standard

… Students collect and display data related to their own activities using simple pictographs.

1.5
  • Interpretation of pictographs, bar and column graphs

1.75
  • Collection and recording of categorical and numerical data

2.0 Standard

… Students collect simple categorical and numerical data (count of frequency) and present this data using pictographs and simple bar graphs.

2.25
  • Displays of data as a column or bar graph

2.5
  • Construction of an appropriately labelled bar graph

3.0 Standard

… Students recognise different types of data: non-numerical (categories), separate numbers (discrete), or points on an unbroken number line (continuous).

They use a column or bar graph to display the results of an experiment (for example, the frequencies of possible categories).

5.0 Standard

… Students represent uni-variate data in appropriate graphical forms including dot plots, stem and leaf plots, column graphs, bar charts and histograms.
