Your child is learning to organise and count information by sorting objects into groups and comparing which groups have more or fewer items.
- Sorting into categories
Classify objects into given categories, count the number in each category, and sort the categories by count

Starting at age 6
Your child is learning to work with data — creating and reading simple charts, graphs, and tables to organise information and answer questions about what the data shows.
- Sorting Data into Categories
Organise and represent data with up to three categories by counting objects in each category and sorting categories by quantity
Ages 6 to 8Method - Pictograms and tally charts (age 6+)
Read, write, and use the vocabulary of data collection and display — data, tally, tally chart, frequency, frequency table, survey, pictogram, bar chart…
Ages 6 to 9Language - Pictograms and tally charts
Interpret and construct simple pictograms, tally charts, block diagrams, and simple tables
Ages 6 to 8Representation - Sorting into categories (age 6+)
Interpret categorical data by asking and answering questions about totals, how many in each category, and how many more or less one category has than another

Your child is learning to create and read simple graphs — making picture graphs and bar charts to show information, then using these graphs to solve mathematical problems.
- Picture & Bar Graphs
Draw a picture graph and a bar graph (with single-unit scale) to represent a data set with up to four categories; solve put-together, take-apart, and compare…

Starting at age 10
Your child is learning to interpret and create different types of graphs and charts, and beginning to calculate averages to understand what data tells us about real-world situations.
- Pie charts
Interpret and construct pie charts: calculate sector angles from data, draw sectors accurately, and read values from pie charts to solve problems
Ages 10 to 11Representation - Calculating the Mean
Calculate and interpret the mean as an average of a data set
Ages 10 to 11Method - Understanding fractions
Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8); use operations on fractions to solve problems involving data in…
Ages 10 to 11Method - Line graphs
Construct and interpret line graphs for continuous data (e.g. temperature over time, plant growth); read intermediate values, identify trends, and solve…
