A picture graph of how many apples five children picked. The key says each apple stands for 2 apples, so half an apple means 1. Children count the pictures in each row, double them, and add 1 for a half, then answer six questions: how many two of the children picked, who picked the most, how many more and how many fewer, and the total. Scaled picture graphs are a grade 3 standard and good practice for the 2 times table. Page 2 is the answer key.
