Blog 4

Hello Class my name is Professor Anthony Peternana, and today I'm going to teach you types of graphs. Graphs are pictures that help us understand amounts. These amounts are called data. There are many kinds of graphs, each having special parts.
         The first graph I am going to introduce is the pie graph. It is shaped like a circle It is divided into fractions that look like pieces of pie Many times the fractional parts are different colors and a key explains the colors.
         

The second graph I am going to introduce is the bar graph. The bars can be vertical (up and down), or horizontal (across). The data can be in words or numbers.
         

Another graph I am going to introduce is the Histogram. It is a special type of bar graph that the data must be shown as numbers in order.
         






And the last type of graph I am going to teach is the line graph. The line graph shows points plotted on a graph. The points are then connected to form a line.

  1. good use of examples for the different types of graphs. It definitely makes it easier to understand when you can physically see what you are talking about. good job!
