Ontario Curriculum (Grade 5)
D1.4 create an infographic about a data set, representing the data in appropriate ways, including in relative-frequency tables and stacked-bar graphs, and incorporating any other relevant information that helps to tell a story about the data
Infographics are used in real life to share data and information on a topic in a concise and appealing way.
Infographics contain different representations, such as tables, plots, and graphs, with minimal text.
Information to be included in an infographic needs to be carefully considered so that it is clear, concise, and connected.
Infographics tell a story about the data with a specific audience in mind. When creating infographics, students need to create a narrative about the data for that audience.
Note
Creating infographics has applications in other subject areas, such as communicating key findings and messages in STEM projects.
