Maths Quiz - Year 2 Data Handling - Answering Questions (Questions)

This quiz addresses the requirements of the National Curriculum KS1 Maths and Numeracy for children aged 6 and 7 in year 2. Specifically this quiz is aimed at the section dealing with asking and answering questions about totalling categorical data.

When data handling, Year 2 children will learn to read graphs and charts and interpret what they see. This will help them to answer questions, for example, they should recognise that the tallest bar in a bar chart represents the most popular choice, or be able to give a total of two categories by adding the results together.

This quiz will help your child to ask and to answer questions on totalling categorical data.
