2 Level 2 Introduction Level 2 Locating Information Introduction Welcome to Level 2 of Locating Information. This course will continue to build on what you learned about graphs in Level 1. Graphs can be used to show information in an easy to read picture view. When information is hard to understand, sometimes seeing a picture of the information helps you understand it better. On the job, being able to use graphs and charts is important. Graphs are also used on the job to train employees. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 1
3 Level 2 Introduction Course Objectives In Locating Information Level 2, you will continue to build on the graph basics you learned in Level 1. In this course, you will: Review the different types of graphs and how they are put in order. Learn additional tools and symbols used in graphs. Practice reading a document or graph and locating basic information. Study basic graphs and charts to see how graphs are made. Learn how to create different types of graphs. Locating Information Level 2 Sometimes, information that measures or compares things is hard to understand unless you can see a drawing or picture. That picture helps you understand the idea. Other times, a graph or chart helps you get a point across quickly. Graphs and charts show information in an easy to read picture view. You can follow their idea or point that is being shown. It is fun to be able to look at a chart or graph and notice the point or idea quickly! This course is divided into six topics: Order of Graphs Types of Graphs Tools Used in Graphs Creating Graphs Using Different Graphs Purpose of Graphs You are now ready to begin the Locating Information, Level 2 course.

4 Level 2 -Order of Graphs Level 2 Locating Information Order of Graphs Graphs are put in order to show the importance of the information. Graphs are also put in order to show a change or difference in the information. Arranging graphs and charts in an order can show how information is grouped together to get the whole idea. Graphs can be put in three basic kinds of order: Alphabetical Order (A, B, C), Sequential Order (First, Second, Third) and Numerical Order (1, 2, 3). Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc.

5 Level 2 -Order of Graphs Learning Objectives In this lesson, you will review and build on what you learned in Level 1 about the order of graphs. The order of information in graphs makes them easier to read and understand. You will review: How graphs are put in alphabetical order, How graphs are put in sequential order and How graphs are put in numerical order. Alphabetical Order One way to put a graph or chart in order is to use the alphabet (A, B, C). You will notice that many graphs and charts use alphabetical order to list information. Alphabetical order helps show the name of people, places or things. When information is listed in alphabetical order, it is easier to locate what you are looking for.

6 Level 2 -Order of Graphs Order of Graphs Question 1 Study this graph, and then answer the question. What information on the graph is put in alphabetical order? Check the correct answer. A. B. C. D. Job skills Levels Courses Factory X Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 5
7 Level 2 -Order of Graphs Explanation You can see that there are items listed at the bottom (Xaxis) and left side (Y-axis) of the graph. The items on the X-axis are the Courses offered at Factory X. The items on the Y-axis are the Levels that are required for each course. You can also see that the items listed on the X-axis are words and the items on the Y-axis are numbers. The correct answer is the Courses are listed in alphabetical order on the Job Skills at Factory X graph. Order of Graphs Question 2 Another way to show alphabetical order is in a table or chart. Many times, lists are put in alphabetical order so the information can be found quickly by using the first letter. Look at this table. Circle the column that is in alphabetical order on this table. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 6
8 Level 2 -Order of Graphs Explanation When you are looking for alphabetical order, look for words or names whose first letter can be put in ABC order. In the table of Factory X Students, you can see that the names of the students are listed in order from B for Bradley to J for Jackson. The other columns do not have the first letters of their words in order. Alphabetic order is easy to find when you look at the first letter. Sequential Order Another type of order for graphs is sequential order. Sequential order means that things are put in order over a period of time. When something is being measured over time, a graph can show the point quickly and clearly using time or date information. Can you tell what is being measured in this line graph? Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 7
9 Level 2 -Order of Graphs Sequential Order You can use the title to see this graph is measuring Kristin s temperature. The x-axis shows the actual times her temperature was taken. The y-axis lists the temperature degrees. Graphs show information quickly. Putting a graph in sequential order shows how time passes with the information being presented. Order of Graphs Question 3 Look at this line graph again. Draw a circle on the graph at the time when Kristen s temperature was highest. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 8
10 Level 2 -Order of Graphs Explanation When you are looking for highest or lowest in a graph, it is easy to glance at the highest or lowest point or level on the graph to find the answer. In a bar graph, the tallest bar on the graph would be the highest and the shortest bar on the graph would be the lowest. On a line graph, the highest point on the line would be the highest level and the lowest point on the graph would be the lowest level. In the previous problem, the time Kristen s temperature reached the highest was 11:00. You can tell by finding the highest point on the line graph and moving down to the x-axis to see the time. Numerical Order Sometimes, graphs or charts put things in numerical order. Numbers that are shown from lowest to highest are used to explain quantities or increases. Look at the graph of the Technology Exports. Did you notice that there is a numerical order shown? On the left side (y-axis) of the graph, the amount of technology shipped to other countries is shown in millions of dollars. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc.

11 Level 2 -Order of Graphs Order of Graphs Question 4 Use the graph to answer this question. Circle the countries that received $8 million dollars of technology products. Hint: There are two countries on the graph. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 10
12 Level 2 -Order of Graphs Explanation To answer the question, you needed to look at the y-axis for $8 million dollars, and then move to the right to see which country or countries were at this level. Both China and Germany received $8 million dollars of technology products. Order of Graphs Question 5 In what order is the Fitness Classes graph organized? Check the correct answer. A. B. C. D. Numerical Order Sequential Order Alphabetical Order Numerical and Sequential Order Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 11
13 Level 2 -Order of Graphs Explanation You can look at the x-axis and see the days of the week are listed in order. This graph also has numbers on the y-axis, but the information is not in numerical order on the graph. This graph is organized in sequential order. Order of Graphs Question 6 Try another practice problem. Draw a circle around each day of the week the lab is open until 4:00 PM. Hint: There are two days. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 12
14 Level 2 -Order of Graphs Explanation After looking at the Lab Testing bar graph, you can see that the lab is open at different times. You can also see that the lab is open later on some days than on other days. To answer the question, you needed to find 4:00 PM on the y-axis and move to the right to see which bars were on that level. The lab is open until 4:00 PM on Monday and Wednesday. Order of Graphs Question 7 Use the Lab Testing graph again to answer this question. What time is the lab open on Friday? Check the correct answer. A. B. C. D. 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 13
15 Level 2 -Order of Graphs Explanation To answer the question, you needed to find Friday on the x- axis and look at the bar to see what time the lab is open. The lab is open from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM on Friday. Order of Graphs Question 8 In what order is the information on this graph? Check the correct answer. A. B. C. D. Alphabetical order Number order Sequential order Both sequential and numerical order Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 14
16 Level 2 -Order of Graphs Explanation In the previous problem, you needed to find what order the information was in on the graph. First, look at the information in the graph. All of the information is in numbers. Next, look at the labels on the x- axis. The information on the x-axis is in order by year; therefore, it is in sequential order. Now, look at the numbers listed above the bars. Are they in numerical order? No, therefore the graph cannot be in numerical order. The bar graph is in sequential order. Order of Graphs Question 9 Use the Imports from China graph to answer this question. How many years does the graph show imports from China? Check the correct answer. A. B. C.

D. 100 degrees 101 degrees 102 degrees 103 degrees Order of Graphs Summary When a graph is shown in a certain type of order, it is easier to read and understand the idea. At work, graphs or charts can help you read or see information quickly. Graphs can be put in three basic kinds of order: Alphabetical Order (A, B, C), Sequential Order (First, Second, Third) and Numerical Order (1, 2, 3). Graphs and charts are an excellent way to see information in the form of a picture. Your mind can see a picture and form answers from that picture. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc.

20 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Level 2 Locating Information Types of Graphics On the job or at work, you will see many different types of graphs. Some are in the shape of a circle, some are in the shape of a square or a rectangle and some look like a list or chart. No matter what the shape, graphs show important information at a glance. Different types of graphs are: Pie Charts Bar Graphs Line Graphs Table or Charts Diagrams Forms Maps and Plans Gauges and Dials Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 19
21 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Learning Objectives In this lesson, you will review and build on what you learned in Level 1 about the different types of graphics. You will: review the names for each type of graph, the type of information that is being shown in the graph and recognize the features of these graphics. Pie Charts One type of graph that is common on the job or at work is a pie chart. A pie chart is easy to spot because it is in the shape of a pie or circle. Pie charts can show parts of the whole idea. Though it is shaped in a circle, lines drawn within the circle can divide sections to show small or large parts of the whole circle. Look at this Pie chart. Notice how the lines are drawn to show different groups within the circle. This pie chart shows that ABC Bookstore has different types of books. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 20
22 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Types of Graphics Question 1 Pie charts or circle graphs are used to show a whole broken into parts. Use the ABC Bookstore pie chart to answer this question. How many kinds of books does ABC Bookstore have? Check the correct answer. A. B. C. D. 3 kinds of books 4 kinds of books 5 kinds of books 6 kinds of books Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 21
23 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Explanation After looking at the pie chart, you can see that the circle shows 100% of the books at ABC Bookstore. That amount is shown as 100 percent of books in the store. When information needs to be divided to show a piece of a whole, a pie chart is usually used. If you can think of a whole pie, you can see that a pie chart looks like pieces of pie being cut. At ABC bookstore, there are 4 pieces of pie that show 4 different kinds of books. Bar Graphs Another common graph used on the job or in the workplace is a bar graph. A bar graph uses the shape of a rectangle to compare amounts of something. Within a rectangle box, there are short or long rectangles in the shape of a bar which measure more or less of something. Look at this bar graph. Can you tell what it is measuring? Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 22
24 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Types of Graphics Question 2 Use the bar graph to answer this question. What is the bar graph measuring? Check the correct answer. A. B. C. D. Degrees in the UK Degrees in Germany Degrees in the U.S. Science and Engineering Degrees Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 23
25 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Explanation After looking at the graph, you can see that there are longer bars and shorter bars. You can see that the U.S. has a longer bar than Germany or the U.K. A longer bar means more and a shorter bar means less. A bar graph measures and compares different amounts that you can see clearly at a glance. You can look at the title of the bar graph to see that this bar graph is measuring the number of Science & Engineering Degrees from the U.K., U.S. and Germany. Line Graphs You will also find a graph in the workplace that uses a line. This type of graph is called a Line Graph. A line graph uses an up and down or side to side line to show change over time. A line graph is a good way to show how information can keep going but may change also. Look at this line graph. Kaitlin s Craft Store sells Scrapbook Kits. Look how the line shows her Weekly Sales. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 24
26 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Types of Graphics Question 3 Look at the points on the line graph. Circle the point on the graph where sales were highest for the week. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 25
27 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Explanation A line graph shows how something can change over a period of time. For Kaitlin s Craft Store, sales went up and down during the week. The line graph shows you her sales for each day. After looking closely, you can see that the line showing her sales went up each day until Wednesday and then back down on Friday. Therefore, the highest point was on Wednesday with 30 kits sold. Tables and Charts A type of graph, which shows information in rows and columns, is a Table or Chart. A table is information in the form of a list. On the job, a table can look like a checklist or list of tasks to be done. This table shows tasks that need to be done at work. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 26
28 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Types of Graphics Question 4 A table can be in the form of a list or chart so that the information is easy to understand. You can read each line or row. Each row divides the information to make it easier to read. How many tasks are shown on the table? Check the correct answer. A. 4 B. 5 C. 6 D. 7 Tables and Charts Question 5 A table or chart can also be a list of employees, departments, items or other information in the workplace. Look at the list of employees. Read the table to find out how many employees have paid their parking permit. Circle the employees who have paid their parking permit. Hint: There are two employees. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 27
29 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Explanation Did you notice how the employee names were listed? They are listed in alphabetical (A,B,C) order. A table is a good way to read information in the workplace. To answer the previous problem, you needed to look at the Paid Parking Permit column to see which employees have already paid. The two employees who have already paid their parking permit are Abdul and Harris. Forms Another type of graph at work or on the job is a Form. A form is used to gather many kinds of information. A form asks for information to be written in blanks. A job application or order form are good examples of how a form can show information that is used at work or on the job. Look at this example of a form. Can you tell what this form is used for? Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 28
30 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Forms A form always asks for information. The information can be different each time. It is good to read each word or phrase on the form so that you can fill in the correct response. This form is used as a job application. You can tell by reading the lines that ask you to fill in the Job applying for and Date you can begin. Also, you can tell it is a job application because it is asking a choice to work a shift. A shift is a period of time that the job can be done. Maps and Plans Maps are a picture, drawing or sketch explaining a location or place. Maps are used in the workplace every day. They are used to show how to get from a starting point to an ending point without having to read pages of directions or instructions. Learning to read maps is an important skill to have. Maps help us in our every day lives and show us how to find places that we have not been. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 29
31 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Types of Graphics Question 6 A map can be a drawing of a place. Maps are used in the workplace to help people find things quickly. Look at this map. It shows a city park. Use the map above to answer this question. Circle the Tennis Court. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 30
32 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Explanation When you are looking at a map, it will often have a key or box with pictures showing tips to help you find the information. The city park map did not include a key, but it did have pictures. These pictures are clues to items found in the park. The pictures of the tennis racquets show where the tennis court is located in the park. Maps use keys to show you the information quickly without taking up room or space on the map. Diagrams A Diagram is a drawing that usually shows how to put something together or do something. Diagrams are useful on the job to show or instruct you how to do something. This diagram is a Flowchart. A Flowchart shows a task with a series of steps. This flowchart shows the process of painting a room. Could you follow this diagram? Start at the top and follow the steps to the bottom. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 31
33 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Gauges and Dials Gauges and dials are used to show current information. In the workplace, you may need to read a gauge or dial to see if a machine is working correctly. A speedometer is a gauge that shows the speed that a car is going. Common types of gauges and dials that you may have seen are: Bathroom scales Clocks Appliance Dials Electric Meters Water Meters Temperature Thermometers On the job and at work, gauges and dials are very helpful in making equipment and machines run properly. Types of Graphics Question 7 Try reading this gauge. What information does this gauge show? Check the correct answer. A. B. C. D. How fast the car is going. When to change the oil. How may miles the car has been driven. Both how fast the car is going and how many miles the car has been driven. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users.

34 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Types of Graphics Question 8 Read the question and use the graph to answer this question. What is the percent of Biographies that ABC Bookstore carries? Check the correct answer. A. B. C. D. 10 percent 15 percent 30 percent 45 percent Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 33
35 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Explanation After looking at the pie chart, you can tell that ABC Bookstore carries all books. You can also see that the pie chart has four sections (or 4 pieces of pie), which equal 100 percent. To answer the question, find Biographies on the pie chart. Then read the percentage. Forty-five percent of the books ABC carries are biographies. Pie charts are easy to read and are used often in the workplace. Pie charts show parts, which added together, make 100% or a whole circle. Types of Graphics Question 9 Here is the Science and Engineering Degrees graph again. Study the graph and answer the question. Circle the country that had the least or fewest science and engineering degrees. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 34
36 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Explanation To answer the question, you needed to look at the bar graph to find the shortest bar on the graph. The UK had the fewest science and engineering degrees. A bar graph is an easy way to read information that is being compared. Types of Graphics Question 10 Look at the graph of Kaitlin s Craft Store again. Use the graph to find the information about the store s sales. How many scrapbook kits did the store sell on Thursday? Check the correct answer. A. 10 B. 15 C. 20 D. 30 Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 35
37 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Explanation Looking at the line graph of Kaitlin s Craft Store, you can follow the line to see that her sales went up and down during the week. To answer the question, you needed to find Thursday on the x-axis. Then move up to see the number of scrapbook kits sold that day. Kaitlin s Craft Store sold 20 scrapbook kits on Thursday. A line graph can help you see how information can change over time by seeing how the line moves up and down. Types of Graphics Question 11 Use this table to answer the question. Using the table, circle the tasks to be completed on Tuesday and Thursday. Hint: There are three tasks. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 36
38 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Explanation When you read a table, it is good to read from left to right. For this table, the task is listed on the left side of the table and the days of the week are on the right. In the previous problem, you needed to find which tasks needed to be completed on Tuesdays and Thursdays. First, look at the column for Tuesday and Thursday. Move down to see which tasks are listed for these two days. Your eyes can glance at the X s easily to see the days and tasks. The following tasks need to be completed on Tuesdays and Thursdays: clear out credit card machine, count out the register money and wipe down all tables. A table is used a lot in the workplace. A table organizes information and makes it easy to find. Types of Graphics Question 12 Look at this form and read each line carefully. Use the form to answer the question. This form might be used to: A. B. C. D. apply or register for school. order something from a catalog. sign up for a free drawing. apply for a job. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 37
39 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Explanation When you read a form, it is good to read each word or group of words so that you fill in the information asked. This form asks for basic information about a student. You can read the form to find clues to the purpose of the form. On this form, it asks for the grade the student will enter and whether they are a day student or boarding school. These are all clues that the form is used to gather information about a student for registration. On the job or at work, you will see many forms. Each form asks for different information. A form makes the information look neat and organized. Types of Graphics Question 13 This pie chart shows the money received by National Community College. Use this pie chart to answer the question.

42 Level 2 -Types of Graphics Types of Graphics Summary It is important to be able to read graphs, charts, forms and gauges. Each type of graphic shows different information. The purpose of a graph or chart is to explain the information in a way that is simple but clear to understand. On the job or in the workplace, graphics show a snapshot of information. A graph can show a part of information within a whole (pie chart). A graph can also show changes over time (line graph). A graph can show how much or how little (bar graph). A chart or table can put information in order or in a list. Maps show a location or place where the information can be found. A gauge can show information that is currently happening (such as a speedometer or odometer). A great way to display any idea or information is through a chart or graph. Practice reading as many graphs as you can to help your skills on the job or at work. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 41
43 Level 2 - Tools Used in Graphs Level 2 Locating Information Tools Used in Graphs You have learned the most common types of graphs in previous lessons. Each graph or chart has a different design and shape. The different designs and shapes are called tools (features). Tools are small pictures, colors, shapes or patterns to show items that are the same or alike on a graph or map. Tools help you read a graph or map. These colors, shapes or patterns help you locate information quickly. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 42
44 Level 2 - Tools Used in Graphs Learning Objectives In this section, you will learn more about the tools or features that are used in graphs. These tools will help you read and understand graphs. You will learn common: Symbols and keys and Shapes and colors used in graphs. These tools show a small picture instead of words so you can tell what the graph is about. You can learn to read these tools in order to understand the idea or information being shown. Symbols and Keys in Graphs One tool that is used in graphs is a symbol. A symbol is a tool that shows a drawing or picture instead of using words. Look at the symbols on this graph. Can you tell what this symbol represents? The yellow ribbon is a symbol used to show U.S. troops from each state that represents our country overseas. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 43
45 Level 2 - Tools Used in Graphs Tools Used in Graphs Question 1 Use this graph to answer the question. What do the yellow ribbons mean? Check the correct answer. A. B. C. D. Ribbon stores Factory outlets U.S. troops overseas U.S. military bases Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 44
46 Level 2 - Tools Used in Graphs Explanation Usually a graph will have a key that shows what the symbols or pictures mean. On this graph, the map key in the bottom right corner shows what the yellow ribbon symbol means. Always look for the graph key to help you understand what you are looking at. After looking at the map key, you can see that the yellow ribbon symbols are used to show the states with U.S. troops overseas. Symbols and Keys in Graphs Another way that a symbol can be used is to show a fact or idea. Sometimes, a symbol will be placed outside the graph or map as a tool to help you locate information quickly. Have you ever seen this symbol on a road map? This symbol shows the directions of North, South, East and West. It is used with maps and plans to show direction. This symbol is called a compass rose. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 45
47 Level 2 - Tools Used in Graphs Tools in Graphs Question 2 Use the map and compass rose to answer this question. Which direction is North? Check the correct answer. A. B. C. D. Up Down To the right To the left Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 46
48 Level 2 - Tools Used in Graphs Explanation South is shown as pointing downward on the map. East is located on the right side of the map and West is located on the left side of the map. After looking at the map and compass rose, you can see that North is shown as pointing upward on the map. It is important to remember this when working with maps and plans. Shapes and Colors in Graphs Other tools used in graphs are shapes and colors. Shapes and colors are used a lot in Pie Charts and Bar Graphs. Using several shapes and colors on the same graph makes parts and sections stand out. When the shapes and colors stand out on the graph, you can separate the sections by sight.

59 Level 2 - Creating Graphs Level 2 Locating Information Creating Graphs You have been learning about the different types of graphs: Pie Charts Bar Graphs Line Graphs Tables Forms Maps Gauges and Dials Have you ever wanted to make your own graph? This section will help you do just that. One of the ways to understand a graph or chart is to create one from the text or sentences that describe the idea. In the following pages, you will take several items or groups and arrange them into a graph or chart. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 58
60 Level 2 - Creating Graphs Learning Objectives In this section, you will learn to create graphs using information provided. You will learn to create: Pie charts, Bar graphs, Line graphs and Tables. You will be able to take basic information and decide what type of graph to show it in. Creating a Pie Chart A Pie Chart is a circle that is used to show parts of a whole. All of the parts or pieces of the pie added together equal the whole circle or pie. Example: The parts of this pie graph will be different color of roses. Suppose you have 10 roses. All 10 roses make up the whole circle. Seven of the roses are red, while three of the roses are yellow. The roses can be shown in the shape of a circle or pie chart.

64 Level 2 - Creating Graphs Creating a Line Graph A line graph uses an up and down or side to side line to show change over time. A line graph is a good way to show how information can keep going but may change also. We are going to create a Line graph showing Student Loans for the months of January through May. Data points: January = 3, February = 7, March = 4, April = 6, May = 10. Just like the Bar graph, we need to set up the X-axis and Y-axis. List the numbers 0 through 10 on the Y-axis (left side) of the graph. Next, list the months January through May on the X-axis (bottom) of the graph. Next, place the Data Points on the line graph. Data points: January = 3, February = 7, March = 4, April = 6, May = 10. Find January on the X-axis and move up until you get to 3 and place a point on the graph. Continue until all data points have been marked on the graph. Next, draw a line from one point to the next. You have now created a line graph! Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc.

66 Level 2 - Creating Graphs Creating a Table A Table is form of a graph that is used to put information in order. Sometimes a table lists names or things in alphabetical order so that it is easy to read. It is easier to read a table than to read words in sentences or phrases. Look at this example. The class is listed by boys and girls in alphabetical order. The purpose of a table is to make the information: Easier to read Organized in order Shorter to read Creating Graphs Question 4 When you are reading a table at work, you will need to understand the information that is being listed. Think about the items or things in the table and try to think of a category or group that they would fit into. What do you think the table is trying to list or put in order? Check the correct answer.

There are 10 pairs of pants to ship out to another retail store. Seven of them are white and 3 of them are blue. Circle the bar on the graph that shows the 7 pairs of white pants. Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 67
69 Level 2 - Creating Graphs Explanation To answer the question, you needed to find the number 7 on the y-axis, and then move to the right until you found a bar at that level. You could also look at the bar graph and see that the 7 white pants were shown with a white bar. However, graphs do not always use coordinating colors. The bar at the 7 level shows the 7 white pants. Creating Graphs Question 7 Read the information below. Use the line graph to answer the question. Student Loans January = 3 February = 7 March = 4 April = 6 May = 10 What data point is missing on the line graph? Check the correct answer. A. January = 3 B. February = 7 C. March = 4 D. April = 6 Copyright 2010, SAI Interactive, Inc. For use only by KeyTrain licensed users. Page 68
70 Level 2 - Creating Graphs Explanation Look at each data point on the line graph to see which month label and point is not on the line graph.
