Graphing is a valuable skill for children to learn and can be introduced as early as late primary years when using our new material, Bar Graph Complete Set! Learning to graph helps children understand data and relationships and can also help them develop their spatial reasoning skills. It does so by showing data using visual representations. Graphs can be used to show how things change over time or to compare different things.
