Stage 2 (Years 3 and 4) ยท Mathematics ยท Data

Collects discrete data and builds graphs using a given scale.

MA2-DATA-01 is an outcome from the NESA Mathematics K-10 Syllabus (2022), taught in NSW schools. Because Stage 2 spans Years 3 and 4, the worksheets below come from Year 3 and Year 4. Print them as PDFs, or generate a fresh one. Every maths answer key is computed in code, so it is never wrong.

Teaching guide

What students learn

Collects discrete data and builds graphs using a given scale.

How to teach it

Match each bar to the scale to read its value, then compare bars for most, least and difference. Keep bars equal width with gaps.

Worked example
How tall is the bar for Apple?
Answer: 4

Generated and checked in code, so it is correct.

Watch out for

Reading between gridlines incorrectly when the scale counts by more than one.
