Grade 4 · Reading · Lesson 18

Analyze Charts and Graphs

Charts and graphs present data visually, making it easier to spot patterns, compare amounts, and track changes. Nonfiction texts often use them to support written information. Reading a chart carefully — its title, labels, and scale — is just as important as reading the words around it.

1Read and interpret data from bar charts, line graphs, and pie charts
