1. Bar Graph: A bar graph is like a chart made up of rectangles.

Each rectangle
represents a category or a group of things you want to compare. You use a bar
graph when you want to show how much or how many of something there is in
different categories. For example, you can use a bar graph to compare the
number of apples, oranges, and bananas sold in a week.

2. Histogram: A histogram is similar to a bar graph, but it shows the frequency of


different things. Instead of using categories, it uses ranges or intervals. You use
a histogram when you want to show how many times something happened within
different ranges. For example, you can use a histogram to show how many
students scored within different score ranges on a test.

3. Scatter Plot: A scatter plot is a graph that uses dots to show the relationship
between two sets of data. You use a scatter plot when you want to see if there is
a connection or pattern between two things. For example, you can use a scatter
plot to see if there is a relationship between the time you spend studying and
your test scores.
4. Line Graph: A line graph shows how something changes over time. It uses points
connected by lines to represent data. You use a line graph when you want to see
how something has changed or compare different trends over time. For example,
you can use a line graph to show how the temperature changes throughout the
year.
5. Circle Graph (also called Pie Chart): A circle graph looks like a pizza divided into
slices. Each slice represents a different part or percentage of a whole. You use a
circle graph when you want to show how much each part contributes to the
whole. For example, you can use a circle graph to show how much time you
spend on different activities in a day.

6. Stem and Leaf Plot: A stem and leaf plot is a way to organize and show data. It
looks like a table with numbers. You use a stem and leaf plot when you want to
see the distribution of numbers and find patterns. It helps you see which numbers
appear more often and which ones are less common.
7. Double Bar Graph: A double bar graph is like a regular bar graph, but it
compares two sets of data side by side. You use a double bar graph when you
want to compare two different things at the same time. For example, you can use
a double bar graph to compare the number of boys and girls in different grades in
a school.
