This unit builds on Units 1C 'The information around us', 1D 'Labelling and classifying' and 1E 'Representing information graphically: pictograms'. It prepares children for Units 2C 'Finding information', 3C 'Introduction to databases' and 4C 'Branching databases'.
The unit assumes that children:
- can collect data
- can sort and classify using a range of simple criteria
- can use a graphing program to create pictograms
- can explain data that is presented graphically
- can use print-based contents pages and indexes
- understand that questions can be asked in different ways.
