2️⃣ Parts of a Bar Graph

• Title 🏷️ – tells what the graph is about.

• Y-axis ⬆️ – shows the numbers or quantity.
• Bars ▇ – represent the information. Taller bars mean more, shorter bars mean less.

3️⃣ Steps to Create a Bar Graph

1. Collect data 📋 – write down what you want to show.
2. Choose categories 🏷️ – what each bar will represent.
3. Draw axes ➡️⬆️ – label X-axis and Y-axis.
4. Mark the numbers on Y-axis 🔢 – use equal intervals.
5. Draw bars ▇ – make each bar the right height for the data.
6. Give a title 🏷️ – name your graph clearly.

5️⃣ Fun Example

Suppose you counted your friends’ favorite fruits:

• 🍎 Apple – 5
• 🍌 Banana – 3
• 🍇 Grapes – 4

Your bar graph will have:

• X-axis: Apple, Banana, Grapes
• Y-axis: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
• Bars with different colors showing the numbers
