Pictograms

Charts made of pictures

A pictogram shows data using pictures! Each picture stands for one thing.
Favourite fruit in our class:
🍎 Apple: 🟢🟢🟢🟢
🍌 Banana: 🟢🟢
🍊 Orange: 🟢🟢🟢
Each 🟢 = 1 child. Apple is the favourite!
A pictogram uses pictures to show data. Each picture stands for one thing (here, one child’s vote). We can see at a glance that apple is the favourite — it has the most! Pictograms make data easy to read.
