Vocabulary Data – pg. 72 - information, often given in the form of numbers or facts. Frequency Table – pg. 72 - a table that displays the number of times each item or category occurs in a data set.

Making a Frequency Table What is your favorite color? To find out which color is chosen most often, we can make a frequency table. MAKE IT!!
Line Plot When the items or categories being tallied are numbers, a line plot can be used to visually display the data. A line plot uses X marks above a number line to show the frequencies. XXXXXX The X marks above the number line show the frequencies. XXXXX XXXXX XXXX The Number Line shows the number of books read. XX 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Number of Books Read
