Reading Tables and Charts

Tables and charts help us see information easily. They use pictures and short text.

What is a Table?

A table organizes data in rows and columns.

  • Rows go from left to right.
  • Columns go from top to bottom.

What is a Bar Chart?

A bar chart uses rectangles (bars) to show data. Longer bars mean bigger numbers. Shorter bars mean smaller numbers.
To understand a table or chart, you need to look at:

  • The Title: What is the chart about?
  • The Labels: What information is in the columns and rows?

Tips for Success

Here are some tips for reading tables and charts:

  • Read the title first. The title tells you the main topic.
  • Look at the labels. Read the words at the top of columns and on the sides of the chart.
  • Use your finger to find information. Trace the row and column to find the data you need.
