    Learners must be able to both present and interpret data in the form of tables. 

    It can be challenging without a visual representation, like a graph, for learners to notice patterns, similarities, and differences. 

    For this reason, it is useful to practise making interpretations of data in tables, such as that presented in Worksheet 4: Interpreting data.

    Ask learners to study the data and complete the questions

    Use Worksheet 4: Interpreting data answers to discuss the reasons for the findings as a class. 

    Extend the activity by asking learners to plot the data shown in the table as a bar chart.
