How to Make a Pictograph

We will make a pictograph to display the numbers of cheeseburgers that were eaten by a group of friends over the course of a week.

Step 1: Data Collection - Since this is a tool that we use to display data, we first must collect the data. You can do this by using a tally chart, since the number of cheeseburgers should not be that high. We would approach each friend and ask him the number of cheeseburgers he or she ate over the last week. Michael ate 5. Tara ate 2. John ate 4. Sara ate 1. Jacob ate 3. Here is a summary of the data that we collected:

Michael: 5, Tara: 2, John: 4, Sara: 1, Jacob: 3

Step 2: Pick a Symbol - The symbol that choose should give the audience a clear understanding of what the data represents. In this case, it makes a lot of sense to use an image of a cheeseburger as our symbol.

Step 3: Pictograph Outline - We will create a two-column chart. The left side will list the names of the people. The right side will indicate the number of cheeseburgers that they ate. Each burger image indicates 1 cheeseburger eaten. It is important to label that somewhere near the chart. With this in mind, here is what our outline should look like:

Step 4: Plot Data - We now place an image, in the column to the right, for each cheeseburger eaten by each of the people. Based on our original survey, which was: Michael: 5, Tara: 2, John: 4, Sara: 1, Jacob: 3. As you see below, these are fun and attractive charts that bring some excitement to your audience.
