Two data sets to read and interpret for Year 4 maths. Pupils answer three questions on a bar chart of books read by different classes, including how many more books 4B read than 4C, then three more on a line graph tracking temperature through the day, including when it peaked. Every answer is provided. Covers both England National Curriculum statistics objectives for the year.
Statistics
“Interpret and present discrete and continuous data using appropriate graphical methods, including bar charts and time graphs.”
One discrete chart and one continuous graph cover both halves of the objective.
Statistics
“Solve comparison, sum and difference problems using information presented in bar charts, pictograms, tables and other graphs.”
The how-many-more question is a straight difference problem.
Three questions on a bar chart, like which class read the most books.
Three questions on a time graph, like the temperature at 10:00 and when it was highest.
Answers for all six questions.
