Grade 3 Sheet 3 builds data skills by interpreting bar graphs of monthly rainfall, line graphs of temperature, and weather symbol charts. Students complete fill-in-blank items naming graph types, tools, and units, then use matching to pair Grade 3 data tools with the information each best displays. The worksheet also compares climates of different cities so students see how location affects the weather patterns shown on charts and maps.
