Main Lesson -  Today we are going to continue to look at data and now start looking at block graphs.

A Block Graph is a simple chart which shows units of data with blocks. Block Graphs have two axes and are a common method of recording information in Maths.

Watch the video below to explain what a block graph is and what it looks like

I would now like you to create your own block graph using the data you collected on your tally chart from yesterday.

You may want a grown up to help you draw out the template for your block graph. 

Remember to include -

• a title
• numbers going up the y axis
• names of items going along the x axis

Take your time with this activity and remember to count carefully when filling in your data.

Good Luck
