Introduce your class to drawing and interpreting many-to-one pictograms and block diagrams in this complete set of statistics lessons designed for Year 2 classes.
Your class will be challenged to draw and compare pictograms and block diagrams with different keys to identify the different ways that data can be presented using these charts. Give your class the opportunity to collect and present their own data using tallying.
This five-lesson scheme of work comes with plans, slides and printable resources giving you (almost!) everything you need to engage your class in these challenging lessons.
