From counting to data
Graphs start with counting, then turn the counts into something you can compare at a glance. These sheets do both on one page, then ask questions that need the graph to answer.
Talk about the graph
Ask which bar is tallest and how they can tell without counting, and what a new picture would do to the graph.
