This is aligned with the following California State Standards:
Arrange objects in a specific order (e.g., smallest to largest). Group objects by some attribute value (e.g., shape, size, texture, numerical pattern).
Recognize the structure of bar and picture graphs such as the framework, specifiers, or labels for the x- and y-axes. Understand that bars are used to display data on bar graphs, where the height of the bar represents the number of observations for each category. Understand that pictures, symbols, or geometrical figures are used to display data on picture graphs, where the number of pictures or symbols represents the number of observations for each category.
Answer elementary-level questions by lifting information from a bar graph or picture graph, and understand the information represented on the graph (e.g., on the graph representing students' favorite ice cream, how many students like strawberry ice cream? How many students like chocolate ice cream?).
Interpret or integrate information on a bar graph or picture graph to answer questions (e.g., in a graph representing students' favorite ice cream, how many more students like strawberry ice cream than chocolate ice cream?).
Draw inferences or make predictions by interpreting information presented on a bar graph or picture graph (e.g., on a graph representing the number of pizzas required for a certain number of people, predict the number of pizzas required for 20 people).
