About this worksheet
A bar graph with four kinds and five questions about it.
What kids practice
A picture graph uses pictures to show how many of each thing, and a bar graph uses bars against a number scale. Second graders read and make both, with up to four categories, and use them to answer questions like how many more and how many in all.
Watch for
- Reading the number next to the bottom of the bar, or the line above it.
- Adding when the question asks how many more.
- Coloring bars past the number when making a graph.
It's free to print, with an answer key. See the full picture graphs and bar graphs guide for 2nd grade.
